I think this setup is going to break the scheme which we have.
We derive the Linux path from
$(dirname $(hg path default))/linux-2.6.18-xen.hg
which is going to be http://linux-2.6.18-xen.hg for you which is
completely wrong. Presumably you need
http://staging-mirror:<some-other-port> which unfortunately cannot be
automatically derived.
I can suggest a few workarounds, if you have any other ideas I'd be glad
to consider them.
You could set XEN_LINUX_HGREPO in your environment to point to the
correct mirror.
Alternatively you could pre-clone linux-2.6.18.hg into your source tree,
then the build will simply use it. Or you could pre-clone
linux-2.6.18.hg in the same directory as your xen-unstable.hg and the
build system will then use that, via $(LINUX_SRC_PATH) which is ".:.."
by default.
We could check in select-repository for "hg path default-linux" before
we go down the route of deriving the path from "hg path default". Then
you could add the correct path to .hg/hgrc. If this seems acceptable let
me know (preferably with a patch ;-))

make world is the same as "make clean kdelete dist", so yes it will
delete the repositories, in the same way it used to delete linux-FOO,
ref-linux-FOO and pristine-linux-FOO requiring you to unpack and repatch
again.
