This does indeed look like a problem.

Unfortunately, you're not providing sufficient information. Ktrace tells
us that time was spent somewhere. But it does not tell us what this time
was actually spent on.

Could you provide a shell script I can use to actually run the problematic
merge myself in a working copy of the appropriate subdirectory of the FreeBSD
repository? Ideally, such a script would assume nothing beyond a new empty
directory and an 'svn' binary in $PATH, and then allow me to proceed to the
actual problem you were seeing. I'll run this script on OpenBSD, so a ksh
compatible script would be nice.

If you could take the time to provide that, then I will take the time to look
into the problem. But your report so far doesn't provide enough material for
me to chew on.

Thanks!
