Attached is a Bazaar patch bundle, implementing the above target via a
shell program. The program parses the Vcs-Bzr field (so this is
blocked by bug#518098) from ‘debian/control’, and the revision number
from the upstream version number in the changelog. It then exports the
revision to an appropriately-named tarball.

The patch bundle is against the Alioth branch
bzr+ssh://bzr.debian.org/bzr/pkg-bazaar/bzr-loom/experimental/ which
is accessible to me only because I have an account there.
