Let me know when you publish the script.  I'd love to have an automated 
solution.  One step that wasn't covered in the original bug report is 
resetting branch.conf to [commit_data].

The crash was a kernel panic on 10.04 using the ext4 file system.  I 
found many existing bugs and there doesn't seem to be any progress on 
fixing the issue.

It would be nice if bzr could detect the failure and, instead of 
crashing, offer to fix the problem.
