Maybe. But then I'd end up with a whole load of "tried this, failed,
fixed this, etc etc" changesets in my repository, and I'd have to do
some major tidying up to bundle them into a patch series with just the
relevant bits. The 8 patches I just sent to -devel, for example, are
dependent enough that I wouldn't be able in any practical sense to
handle them as separate branches, but on the other hand, the earlier
ones can be applied independently of the later ones, so I want to
separate them rather than post a single mega-patch.

I'll have a think about it. I'm pretty new to using Mercurial for
anything other than trivial changes, and there's lots of options to
try.

Thanks for the suggestion!
