Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: bzr

I added a binary file (.pdf) to a bzr working directory,
ran bzr add foo.pdf
then ran bzr diff

First of all, bzr didn't detect that it was a binary file and do something 
sensible.
I got lots of binary crud on my terminal.

But more importantly, it then froze, and I couldn't kill the bzr process, even
with kill -9.   Here's the bottom of the file and my attempts to kill bzr:
