I just tested on my test repository with an arguments reporting
program started from taginfo:
ALL F:/CVSMailer/CheckArguments.exe S=%s V=%v O=%o P=%p T=%t B=%b

Result:
20051219 22:39:50 Param1: S=AAAFile.txt
20051219 22:39:50 Param2: V=1.21.2.3
20051219 22:39:50 Param3: O=add
20051219 22:39:50 Param4: P=ModuleXX
20051219 22:39:50 Param5: T=TagTestValue3
20051219 22:39:50 Param6: B=N

The tagged file is the branch head on a branch named Branch_MergeTest.
%b reports the value "N" (the meaning of which eludes me)

So as you can see your error is not reproducible....
