I don't know how often this is likely to happen, nor exactly what
circumstances cause it (some kind of uncompleted transaction?). I
assume if bob confirms he's not active, then you can break the lock.
But still, if this happens a lot, it's going to be very annoying.
Does anyone know if bzr+ssh:// access would avoid this? That's the
access method the bzr developers recommend; the Savannah ticket about it
is https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?107077.
