Forgive me if I jumped the gun -- the stack trace looked very similar  
to what I remembered encountering during my conversion (and it does  
look similar; see below).  From a brief inspection, I guessed that bzr- 
svn was trying to spoof up a bzr inventory from an equivalent  
subversion revision, and erroring out because of the invalid character.

You may be correct about bzr-svn not properly converting the \ to / in  
Talden's repository.  But I get a very similar error pulling from the  
NetBSD SVN-converted repository using bzr 1.12 and bzr-svn 0.5.2, and  
in this particular case the filename is supposed to have a '\'.  Stack  
trace follows; the main difference is instead of add_directory towards  
the end, mine is add_file:
