According to http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-fast-import.html, this is a 'submodule', a recent addition to the fast-import spec I wasn't aware of. What should bzr fast-import do with these? Ignore them perhaps?

Try rev 229. This will now detect, warn about and ignore the submodule.
