The lkml mercurial (hg) repository at:

  http://www.kernel.org/hg/linux-2.6

is borked.

Trying to "hg pull" from it fails quickly, with:

  pulling from http://www.kernel.org/hg/linux-2.6
  abort: 'http://www.kernel.org/hg/linux-2.6' does not appear to be an hg repository!

Going to 'http://www.kernel.org/hg/linux-2.6' with a web browser fills
ones browser screen with a RevlogError from some Python script.

The backdoor http://master.kernel.org/hg/linux-2.6 still works,
so my local configuration and installation of python and mercurial
is apparently not messed up.  However we are not supposed to use
that backdoor normally, as it has much less bandwidth (to quote
a two year old message I have from Bryan, the last time something
like this happened.)

Known problem from Python version skew between servers. Should be
resolved soon.
