Just to say I tried this this morning and got a lot further:
$ bzr init --format knit planet
$ cd planet
$ bzr pull http://www.gnome.org/~jdub/bzr/planet/devel/trunk/
Inventory ok.
bzr: ERROR: exceptions.AssertionError:
  at /home/bewins/lib/python/bzrlib/knit.py line 1231
  in _parse_record

^^ and I know this problem's been sorted (Robert posted about it yesterday).

Thanks for your help,
Baz
