this is a problem deep down in bzrlib, so reassigning to bzr

Don't do this: There are several issues here:
* rich-root's are not the recommended production format. Use --1.9.
* You are making a new project just to merge in an existing branch, this
is wasteful - just branch the existing project.

Generally you should only run 'init' when you are creating a brand new
project.

To debug this we need to know the xml that is errorin.

This bug report has been incomplete from more than 500 days, and occurred with experimental formats and in code that is no longer used by the current formats. I'll mark it as invalid for the moment, please reopen if you can still reproduce it with newer formats.
