I've been running into unexpected tree conflicts when updating branches from 
the trunk, after reintegrating to the trunk where and file adds or removes were 
involved in the reintegrate.  I expect I'm doing something wrong here, but I 
haven't been able to figure out what.  Can someone point me in the right 
direction?   Here's a simple example that demonstrates my issue.

In this case my server is 1.7.5 and my client is the MacOS client 1.6.17.

~/Development/svn-test > svn update
At revision 30.

~/Development/svn-test > cd branches/

~/Development/svn-test/branches > svn cp ^/trunk mybranch
Checked out revision 30.
A         mybranch

~/Development/svn-test/branches > svn commit -m "created mybranch"
Adding         branches/mybranch

Committed revision 31.

~/Development/svn-test/branches > cd mybranch/

~/Development/svn-test/branches/mybranch > touch foo

~/Development/svn-test/branches/mybranch > svn add foo
A         foo

~/Development/svn-test/branches/mybranch > svn commit -m "added file foo"
Adding         mybranch/foo
Transmitting file data .
Committed revision 32.

# Not necessary.. just being paranoid for demonstration purposes.
~/Development/svn-test/branches/mybranch > svn merge ^/trunk

~/Development/svn-test/branches/mybranch > cd ../../trunk/

~/Development/svn-test/trunk > svn merge --reintegrate ^/branches/mybranch

# Again, probably not necessary.

# With this merge I expect to pick up any changes that are the results of
