I tried to follow the wiki, but it is of course possible.

No.

If I modify one file it just shows that as modified.  I can't reproduce the 
original error.  But it still doesn't show any conflict markers:

% bzr merge
bzr: ERROR: Working tree "/home/jhd/src/bzr/emacs/fixes/" has uncommitted 
changes (See bzr status).


I kind of expected merge to merge changes without me having to check in into 
the quickfix branch first.  Is there such a command?
