[BUG] 'bzr pull' in checkout doesn't update master branch

I was just trying to submit James Westby's patch for the deprecation
string. But pqm requires a branch, so I created a local checkout, and
then did "bzr pull ../bundle.patch".

Which updated my local branch, but not the master branch.

To get the changes uploaded to master, I ended up doing:

bzr unbind
bzr push $master
bzr bind $master

Since "bzr bind" doesn't do that anymore, and 'bzr update' just changed
it into a merge against the remote tip.

So it goes along with the idea that we need an easier way to update the
remote master (which is already a reported bug). But also, 'bzr pull'
should have been updating the remote master anyway.

I do believe at one time it did. But I must not have written a proper
test for it. Or maybe it got removed by some of the other changes.
