 That said, you're unlikely to find anyone overly thrilled by the idea
 of rebuilding (all of) SFW, so you may want to check if folks are
 willing to dock a new package and re-import to get the update, or
 whether they'd prefer an oi-build based way to do it, or... well, I
 don't know.

To try to put it briefly: if I were really moving forward, I'd that in
oi-build (where a later version of Mercurial is already in place for
sustaining). As I'm just doing some minor shifting (sideways instead of
forward, as it were), it seemed simpler to do this with the existing
build system, which I'm modestly tweaking for the package.

 (I'd like to note that I'm suggesting that moving it to oi-build for
 sustaining is *correct*, just a lot more likely to get traction as far
 as it actually getting published afterward)

Yes, it's actually getting the resulting package out into the world
that's a pain.

I think what you did is the right way to do it, I'm just not sure that
it'll result in new packages actually being built and distributed...
