Although we don't have enough details to know what went wrong specifically, there's enough of a likely suspect Branch._get_nick's exception handling that I'm going to mark this Confirmed rather than Incomplete, so we don't scare people off working on this. (Certainly improving that code would be a worthwhile improvement even if it turns out the reporter's problem is something else.)
The full .bzr.log output from the crash would confirm my diagnosis, though.
