I've pulled down the emacs bzr repository both today and yesterday
on different machines (i.e. full/heave bzr checkout) and it works fine. 

Note that the URL for the bzr checkout is

http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/r/emacs/trunk/

while 

http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/lh/emacs/trunk/ 

is the log head for browsing the repository, which may well be broken.
(the difference is /r/ in one and /lh/ in the other).

On both systems, emacs built without errors. The initial heavy checkout
does take a while i.e. 20+ minutes on a fairly fast conneciton. However,
after that, updates are quite fast.
