It hadn't been initialised, the property in the root were copied over
from trunk when Beman merged - so it had the merges from RC_1_34_0 to
trunk stored, but none from trunk.

I've initialised the branch now with the following revisions (based on
commit messages):

1-41356 - Beman
41397 - joaquin
41407,41432,41477,41478 - chris_kohlhoff
41419-41420 - you're comments above.

If anyone has previously merged in changes and wants to mark them up,
the command is something like:

svnmerge merge -M -r revsion-numbers

For more info 'svnmerge help merge'.

Hope that helps, I'll leave it up to you to decide if you actually
want to use it.
