This worries me.  Patches that are not easy to read are
going to be horribly hard to merge into xen-unstable...

Now if we had an idea on what shape would be best for
merging things into the xen-unstable tree, we could
work backwards from there to come up with the kind of
changes to generate.

Of course, we may still come up with the conclusion
that we want the mercurial trees, but at least we'll
know why ;)
