It does support them on the git side.  To SVN, the merge should look
like the squashed result (along the first-parent line).  On your local
git end, it should rebase the merge (to allow for git-svn-id) but
preserve parents, thus keeping history.

However, it is very important that the SVN line of history is always
reachable along the first-parent line.  David, did you ensure that?
