I went ahead and rolled back to a fairly old version of the installers,
which was the last version that I personally used, and updated it for
bzr 2.1.2. As such, it didn't build the chm directly, and it may not
have all the plugins, etc that Ian started adding.

Also, there are some serious issues with downloading the latest svn
builds. There is some sort of redirecting going on that hexagonit
doesn't like.

However, by just using 'wget' and putting the file into
build-win32/downloads it buildout just uses the file that is already
there (rather than thinking it needs to go out and download a new one.)

There is another fairly major issue, in that zlib has now released 1.2.5
(up from 1.2.3 that we were using). When they did this, they deleted the
zlib123-dll.zip from the primary web site, and don't seem to offer a
zlib125-dll.zip. There is another group that distributes a zlib125
build, but the structure on disk is very different. (they build both
dynamic and static libs for both 32 and 64 bit.)

So I dug out an old copy of zlib123-dll.zip and put that in the
downloads directory as well.

Gary and I will continue to try and get the Ian's new stuff working, but
in the mean-time it was easier to just get a release built with the old
code.

This bzr-2.1.2-1-setup.exe includes:
  bzr 2.1.2
  qbzr 0.18.6
  tbzr 0.5.5
  subvertpy 0.7.2

(The rest are unchanged since the 2.1.0 release.)

I haven't updated the other pages yet, because I was hoping some people
would test it first.
