Weird error with bzr-svn...

I'm seeing something similar to what Russel (sp?) Winder saw before,
when bzr-svn is telling me that I'm going to change the mainline, and
I know for a fact that I'm not.  "bzr missing" crashes, and honestly,
I forget the error, but I can get that to you (I can't provide any
tracebacks though.... sorry).  So, I added append_revisions_only =
False, and tried again, and now it's complaining that a revision was
added incorrectly (the revision was committed by someone else).  I've
also gotten several other errors too, by trying various ways of doing
this (merging from the remote branch, merging from a local one, being
bound, being unbound and pushing, etc).  I've dumped the svn
repository that we're working with and kept that aside in hopes that I
can reproduce this at will (I haven't tested that yet).  But I at
least wanted to ask what does any of this mean?  How was a revision
added incorrectly?  I did at least find that bzr-svn/commit.py:760 is
the one throwing the "changing the mainline" error.

This is with bzr-svn 1.0.2 and bzr 2.1.1 or bzr 2.2b2. Any thoughts?
