Ping!

(Still need a reviewer)

The pushed version will reduce the required Mercurial client version to 1.4 as 
that is the version that is shipped with Oracle Enterprise Linux and is used by 
a large number of our development/testing virtual machines. It's not convenient 
to update these systems to a newer version. Note that there are some reported 
reliability issues with Mercurial 1.4 and the current OpenJDK Mercurial 
servers. The failures do not involve any data-loss but it may be necessary to 
occasionally retry operations when using old client versions.
