I guess I am unsure what the original poster was trying to do.  Not
enough of the scenario is described, I think.  And the OP left off the
version of mecurial involved.

But is it possible to do the merge by specifying a revision on either
side (in the log graph) of the troublesome revision?  Or is there a
naming conflict between files in different branches that somehow isn't
handled by the usual logic?
