Open bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr/+bug/129504
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr/+bug/129724

Basically, it is because of how we "upgraded" to use 'send' instead of
'bundle'. And 'bundle' just became a deprecated alias of 'send'.

We have 2 bugs open that indicate we want to restore the previous behavior,
though we will make 'bundle' a deprecated command.

'send' will eventually be a better command line interface, but we need to wean
people off of 'bundle' first.

Oh, and you can do "bzr send -o- > file.diff". (so right now you can do the
same for bundle).
