Has anyone else tried to set the INSERT_METHOD for MERGE tables? It
keeps throwing a syntax error for me. 

Following the docs verbatim (http://www.mysql.com/doc/M/E/MERGE.html),
here's what I get:

>>output
mysql> CREATE TABLE t1 (a INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY, message
CHAR(20));
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.02 sec)

mysql> CREATE TABLE t2 (a INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY, message
CHAR(20));
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> INSERT INTO t1 (message) VALUES ("Testing"),("table"),("t1");
Query OK, 3 rows affected (0.00 sec)
Records: 3  Duplicates: 0  Warnings: 0

mysql> INSERT INTO t2 (message) VALUES ("Testing"),("table"),("t2");
Query OK, 3 rows affected (0.00 sec)
Records: 3  Duplicates: 0  Warnings: 0

mysql> CREATE TABLE total (a INT NOT NULL, message CHAR(20), KEY(a))
TYPE=MERGE UNION=(t1,t2) INSERT_METHOD=LAST;
ERROR 1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax near
'INSERT_METHOD=LAST' at line 1
>>end_output

I checked the release notes/changelog, but there's no mention of the
INSERT_METHOD being broken or fixed.

I'm running MySQL version 3.23.42-log on RH 7.1.
