Well it (more or less) works using hg-fast-export to create a Git
repository and then branching this to create a Bazaar branch. So far so
good. Of course if I try pushing this to the branch that is supposed to
be a mirror of the BitBucket repository I (quite rightly) get:

bzr: ERROR: Transport operation not possible: readonly transport 

which means I cannot pre-condition the branch so as to get round the
conversion problem the Launchpad mirroring system is seeing.  So, being
blunt, the enterprise is b#######. :-((
