The repository does use mergeinfo, but    much later in the revision  
history then when the problem shows up.

Do you have any advice on how to write a test for this behaviour,  
since the problem is not apparent from looking at the repo?  I do not  
like the idea of a test looking at a log but that is all I can think  
of right now.
