Bug Description

Additional: The problem seemed to stem fromt he fact that I was adding a file which was in a bzr directory, but trying to do it via a symlink in my examples folder. This is probably a corner case.

I was adding a file to my bzr branch when I was informed by bzr to report a bug based on this traceback:

doctormo@delen~/Projects/python/coisas/examples/$ bzr add Coisas/classes/services.py
added examples/Coisas/classes
