^-- The problem is here.
win32 echo command wrote to .bzrignore exact string that ends at '>'
sign, i.e. actually "*.txt ". So bzr try to match against file extension
"txt ". Because on windows you cannot create files with trailing spaces
this behavior is incorrect on windows. But pattern itself is probably
correct for linux.

But if you actually invoke your command as:

echo *.txt> .bzrignore

then all works fine.

I'm not sure how to fix this in cross-platform way. I even not sure we
should fix this, because actually

bzr ignore *.txt

do the right thing.
