CVS merge still doesn't work very well

Am I the only one seeing this kind of behaviour:

the first one is opened with the merge tool
- sometimes the "next conflict" and "previous conflict" buttons are
disabled in the merge tool, even when there are still conflicts to be
resolved
- on finishing a merge, I am told that my file has changed on disk and
in memory. Choosing "FS version" loses my merge changes, the only
sensible option is to choose "Memory version".

I haven't got access to a test CVS server to be able to play around
with, so I haven't been able to enter reproducible test cases (hence no
JIRA entries). Is anybody else seeing this, or have I just got something
weird in my set-up?

This has been reported before, but has supposedly been fixed in a recent
EAP build. In which build are you seeing this problem?

Ciao,

3408, haven't had any conflicts yet in 3415. Do you know which JIRA
tracker items are relevant?

I haven't had to do any merges for a while, but I may need to do so in
the near future.

Ciao,

I have the some problems with merging here too...
Don't know exactly what goes wrong and how to reproduce, but sometimes I
have this "huh-what-happened" feeling..
