bzr always sends '/'. It was just confusion by the person who wrote 
bzr_access. (The client doesn't know until it connects where the actual 
repository is, so it cannot send it in advance. It might guess where the 
branch is, but the actual repository could be in any containing dir.)

So if you just set it up with '/' it should work.
