You need a new hypothesis I think, as the problem revno has not been
propogated to bzr.dev from anywhere other than my integration knits
repo, and I independently converted each knit repo atomically.

I still have the prior version of the pack repository on
people.ubuntu.com if you want to check the content though.

One would expect consistent corruption of at least all the texts
introduced by the same revision. Does that appear to be the case?
