?

Don't you have few more lines of output, viz.:

  Related branches:
    parent branch: bzr+ssh://eliz <at> bzr.savannah.gnu.org/emacs/trunk/

Also, Richard cited BzrQuickStartForEmacsDevs, which says:

  Now we get the source files plus all the history of the branch we work
  on (trunk on this case, which is the CVS mainline):

      cd emacs/
      bzr checkout URL_TO_UPSTREAM_TRUNK trunk
      ^^^^^^^^^^^^

AFAIK, "bzr checkout" creates a checkout, not a bound branch.
