The file was renamed at revision 26091 or 26090? Or it was renamed since
then to usg5-4-common.h now?

I looked around and saw a similar bug reported for 'bzr cat', but didn't
find one for 'bzr log'. You're welcome to report one.

It would be reasonable to first try the revisions specified, and then
fall back to the working tree to look for file-ids to log in the old
revisions.
