For the record, if the need appears again: in my experience, the fastest
and most reliable way to import svn into bzr is to use fast-import bzr
plugin. It uses the same format as git-export, which means you can use a
lot of exporters (git, svn, cvs, hg):

svn-export file:///repo | (cd bzr-rep && bzr fast-import - -v)

The only drawback is it requires you to have a fast access to the repo,
which is trivial if you have the svn dump. But the code is stable, much
better than bzr-svn which tries to be too smart IMHO for this kind of
tasks (one time import).

cheers,
