Bazaar 1.9 rc1-3 Windows installers

[Eugene Wee]

Hi John,

I encountered no problems when I locally tested bzr-zip-1.9rc1-1.exe on a
computer in one of my university computer labs running Windows XP SP3
without administrator privileges :)

However, I did have problems using bzr log, bzr branch, bzr annotate and bzr
qannotate on a remote standalone branch via SFTP. Strangely, bzr info and
bzr qlog worked as expected (I could not try bzr qbranch as a password could
not be provided via the GUI). Note that the remote repository format was
RepositoryFormatKnit1 but the local shared repository format was the default
pack-0.92. The traceback was:
"Traceback (most recent call last):

I noticed that there were tbzr related files in the archive. From what I
understand, tbzr needs to be normally installed to actually work, so perhaps
it should not be included in this self-extracting archive?
