I've attached a patch which should work around (though not solve) the issue. (I'm new to Bazaar -- as my commenting on this bug might suggest. As the bazaar merge directive seems a little small to have been correctly produced, I've included diff output as well.)
Can confirm this issue is in trunk (r13) as of Mar 31 01:10 UTC.
