bazaar.launchpad.net does not ever try to connect to you. I believe 1346 is in
Windows' ephemeral port range, so it was probably the local port number
allocated when your system connected to bazaar.launchpad.net. The warning is
likely due to your system receiving a packet just after it closed the connection
on its side. It's pretty common that one side closes the connection by
effectively sending a "I'm going to close the connection" message followed by
actually sending the "connection is closed" message... and it is common for the
other side to send a reply acknowledging the first message before it has
received the second.

In short, that seems quite normal. I think the firewall warning is a red
herring here, both because a) that event seems normal, and b) the network part
of bzr is working just fine for you, it's renaming a file on your disk that is
failing.
