There are many parallel hints in the statement, I guess about 30 :)
The system itself has 114 parallel processes (ora_p*) ATM.

One explanation I'd consider as possible is, that the MERGE itself
spawns less p-processes than the sub-selects, so that the select's
p-processes (the producers) are too fast for the merge (consumer).

But this is a guess, and it would ge great to see some reliable method
to track this issue down :)

Martin
