Is this a bug?I would say so, given that it's not intended and obvious behaviour. I'll copy it to the bug newsgroup.
I don't believe it's a bug. The command says to merge differently headed notes. Merging a half note and a quarter note should result in a filled in note; it's the union of both notes.
What would you expect to happen when you merge a half note and a quarter note?

Well, if you show the shorter one on top, it's impossible to tell the length of the longer one. If you show the longer, you can infer the shorter from the other notes in the voice? Also - check the first note in the example, where the longer is shown on top. Oh - and try the effect of explicitly giving the value of the second minim (I'm British) - leave it as c, and we get no minim notehead. Make it explicit as c2 and the notehead appears.
