Yes, it happens whenever the current directory is in PATH or
PYTHONPATH before the Python lib directory. This is the default case
in Windows, but of course can occur on any platform.

The solution is either the patch offered by Andrew in the previous
post, or to install hg (the script) and mercurial (the code with the
directory) in the same place, since the script directory is always
checked first.

Matt?
