Confirming the problem. --plain emits multiple authors and git fast-import crashes.

Either Arjan's patch or the change David Kilzer linked in #3 works for me, but as far as I can see neither is included in the "canonical" bzr fast-export repository. It would be nice to include it, I can confirm it works for me.
