mtn: this is almost certainly a bug in monotone.

I have just committed a change which causes gzip decompression
failures (and all other Botan failures that could indicate data
corruption) to come out like this, instead:

mtn: error: gzip decompression: data integrity error - crc32 error
mtn: error: this may be due to a memory glitch, data corruption during
mtn: error: a network transfer, corruption of your database or workspace,
mtn: error: or a bug in monotone.  if the error persists, please contact
mtn: error: address@hidden for assistance.

The first line varies according to the Botan failure, of course.  I'm
not wholly satisfied with the wording of the advice - improvements
welcome.
