Bug Description

While I was doing a pull, and my computer froze. I rebooted. After I rebooted, I did a break-lock, and then finished the pull. Then I ran update.
~/bzr.dev $ bzr update
bzr: ERROR: This tree contains left-over files from a failed operation.
    Please examine /home/garyvdm/bzr.dev/.bzr/checkout/limbo to see if it contains any files you wish to
    keep, and delete it when you are done.

I deleted the limbo dir.

It'd be useful to have a traceback from the point where the error about limbo files is thrown; presumably there's a missing unlock there.
