A full hg or git tree would be nicer... the way things are going,
patches applied to such a tree wouldn't be appropriate for upstream
inclusion without cleaning up anyway, so I don't see what the patch
queue method will buy us as opposed to a full tree. Of course nearly
anything would be better than the sparse + patches method.
