Too bad. No-one seemed to have picked up that. :(

Anyways, I could probably give it a closer look (since I use Mercurial 
too :), but it'd like to know if Brian's DB work solves this issue in 
another way beforehand.

Also, the latest (and greatest) way to get patches into buildbot is by 
forking http://github.com/djmitche/buildbot, create a branch from the 
master branch and name it bugXXX which is a corresponding trac ticket 
number. That way, it's easy for us to inspect and merge, and it's easy 
for you to make your patch compatible with the bleeding edge.

Cheers,
