bzr-svn aborted on 'bzr branch'

[c7d2f5c8667d26fffd5e7772d632c76d]

I tried to bzr branch a svn repo, and bzr aborted with this message and asking to file a report:

$ bzr branch $SVNROOT/gnome-games/trunk gnome-games-bzr

This is feisty's bzr 0.13-0u1 running on edgy, with the latest bzr-svn version that supports bzr 0.13.

I suspect this is a duplicate of memory-leaks, though not entirely sure. It's the only situation in which I've seen this exception though, and the number of revisions already pulled also appears to be quite high. I can't reproduce/debug this problem, because I'm not a gnome-games committer.

I saw this today when I was trying to branch from a svn repository with ~160000 commits; it went through the analyzing phase and then gave me 'bzr: ERROR: [Errno 12] Can't create tunnel: Cannot allocate memory'.
