That certainly solves my particular problem.

I guess the only real situation where that might not be appropriate is if 
there are mercurial extensions that don't work with 2.4 for some reason.

If that's considered acceptable; fine by me. I just figured that my desire to 
package some other application in wip was not a very good reason to further 
restrict the mercurial package.
