Thanks for the response.

Which version of 'bzr-svn' is new enough to contain this fix?

What is the trigger for this behaviour? Is there a workaround?

Do you think it serious enough to rate a "serious" severity bug in
Debian's package of 'bzr-svn'? I ask because Debian 'lenny' is
currently in feature freeze, and I'd hate for this bug to remain when
Debian 'lenny' is released.
