We should definitely solve your problem. However, I think thats a
different bug. ACF is a very generic error, its like 'segfault' for C
programs. Getting an ACF means something is wrong, but doesn't indicate
if its missing data or bad delta logic.

Bug 390563 - *this* bug - is 'when all required data is present, bzr
still fails to generate a stream'. And the fix that has been
cherrypicked should be robust except when the tree height changes.

We should debug the bundle based one. I think it is bug 393349, as JML
has suggested.
