Well, I have marked it as something we should be examining asap. As per
the recent mailing list thread release blocking would be to set a
milestone too.

Anyhow in this case I would say shipping the right dll in the installer
would fix it wouldn't it? or perhaps this isn't a bzr bug at all and we
should say either 'invalid' or file a wishlist that we should catch the
exception and provide a better error, and make this bug and the
backtrace into a FAQ for windows users.
