It's not a branch I suspect trouble from, it's the shared repository.
Branches are bzr check'ed in a very short time.

Assuming there are several branches in that shared repo, I should
clone them all to be sure of it. Feasible, but an ugly workaround
nonetheless.

bzr check should work, and in a reasonable amount of time (I'm not
asking seconds or even minutes, but tens of hours seems ridiculous).
Other dVCS have consistency checking commands and they usually are
nowhere that slow.
