The error it's trying to catch is 

 bzr: ERROR: Directory contains a branch, but no working tree (use bzr
checkout if you wish to build a working tree): /tmp/foo2

so i will send a trivial change that just adds more words.

Incidentally it would be nice if there were 'bzr init --no-tree' to make
it easier to reproduce this.
