Yes.  There was also my implied +0.  Fortunately, with the power of bzr,
we can just revert this.  We should also be able to merge . -r -1..-3,
but using the current branch as a merge source is broken atm.  (And
worse, so is the error message!)

Yes, it certainly had an effect on bzrtools, for example.
