In bzr0.9 if you try to apply a bundle whose base is not present, you get "Revision %s not present in repository." This is technically correct but unhelpful; it would be better to say "Sorry, can't apply this bundle because the base revision %s is not present in repository".

(And perhaps we should try a fuzzy non-tracked application, along the lines of bzr patch?)
