Historically, the Launchpad mirroring script used its own converter,
that didn't know anything about bzr-svn.

I *thought* I saw some work being done to use bzr-svn for the
conversion, which would mean that sort of thing would "Just Work".
However, my guess is that right now LP is still using its own converter.
