Bug Description

When "bzr log" is called on a file that's been renamed in the past, it fails.

Here's an example, with the Emacs trunk (Bazaar 2.1.1 on Windows XP):

  $ bzr log -c26091 --long src/s/usg5-4-common.h
  bzr: ERROR: Path unknown at end or start of revision range: src/s/usg5-4-common.h

(It works if I use usg5-4.h, the name this file had when revno 26091 was committed.)

The file src/s/usg5-4-common.h was renamed from src/s/usg5-4.h in revision 100942. 26091 was
one of the revisions that changed the file under its old name.
