Yes, but the patch is only to remove languages we don't support, not to 
maintain our fork of Scintilla.

Same here :-) 

But you can avoid the mercurial thing altogether. What I typically do when 
submitting patch to Scintilla is that I download the latest release tarball 
(Scintilla development isn't so active so there probably won't be conflicts 
with your code if it differs from the current master), create a git repository 
in it and add all files, then make my modifications, commit them, and finally 
git-format-patch the result and submit it as an attachment of the Sourceforge 
issue.
