After looking the .log file, I discovered the problem :-)
It seems you are using bzr 1.8, there si a known Bug #280888 and
that's what you're hitting.

I'll be releasing a new version of xmloutput (0.9 ) soon, Just need to
fix a few issues with encodings, in the meantime you can pull the fix
from the trunk, just: bzr branch lp:bzr-xmloutput

And bzr-eclipse should be working right away, so no more refactoring loss ;-)

Just a note, torecord the moves made by a eclipse refactor, you can
use: bzr mv --after

Cheers,

--Guillermo
