Hmn ... it wants to record merginfo into sys/gnu/dts when I do that ...

mousie:src 382%svn merge -c 300705 --record-only '^/head/' .
--- Recording mergeinfo for merge of r300705 into '.':
 U   .
--- Recording mergeinfo for merge of r300705 into 'sys/gnu/dts':
 U   sys/gnu/dts


It doesn't to that if I omit --record-only.
