Of course -- you're merging the entire branch, so you're trying to
remake all the changes you already made the last time you merged.

A more conventional tag would be something like "html-merged".

No:

        cvs up -kk -jmerged_into -jhtml

In other words, merge the changes between the tag and the tip of the
branch (just the new stuff).
