What is the state of this bug?
There doesn't seem to be a way to fix a corrupt repository as an end user. I corrupted my repository, too. Fortunately, branching from a revision before the disatrous commit works and commiting everything correctly again (without new lines) solves the problem. I versioned my bachelor thesis with bzr and was also shocked to see this. Please fix this problem as soon as possible, even just by telling that there are newlines in filenames, which don't work at the moment.
What I am wondering now: Is the rest correctly escaped? How can you be sure that adding files with malformed names can not "destroy" my repository. Apparently they can now *!
* destroy meant from a users perspective.
