I would probably do it in a footnote. Something like:

Use[#]::

  bzr branch lp:~john-doe/foo/bar

.. [#] Versions of bzr before 0.92 did not understand the 'lp:' prefix.
       You can manually expand them to:
       ``bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/~john-doe/foo/bar``.

The wrapping would need to be fixed, etc. But that would be the basic idea.

By the way, I always find:
http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/user/rst/quickref.html

To be *very* handy to keep around. When writing reStructuredText.
