I'm not sure what the correct behaviour would be. I did know a lot about 
this stuff a few years ago, but my memory has faded, and I'm too busy to 
research this much.

I suggest you find the proper document at http://infocentre.arm.com, and 
compare the expected behaviour with what actually happens. Then we'll 
know how to fix it.

I remember putting in some specific rules for particular tags, but 
basically the merging just happens by type, and there's no automatic way 
to merge strings.
