There is two implementations handling the http protocol: pycurl and urllib.

pycurl is an package distinct from bzr while urllib is pure python.

If the DNS error was transient (as the error message implies), it may be that using pycurl was not related to the bug, but pycurl do DNS caching so that may help.

Can you reproduce it ?

If you can, please use bzr branch http+urllib://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.0.13 to force the use of the urllib implementation and attach $HOME/.bzr.log and an ethereal dump.
