There are quite a number of bug fixes between rev 261 and rev 275, the
0.9 release. These include:

* rev 262: a packaging fix for the exporters
* rev 270 - fix broken Monotone support

John Arbash Meinel also greatly reduced the memory requirements in rev
264 and improved bzrlib usage in rev 267. These have made fastimport
more reliable.

Given John's fixes in particular, my preference is for 0.9 to be
included in Lucid. What's required to get a freeze exception?
