[Tim, wondering why the 3.2 branch isn't "inactive"]

I'm glad it's OK! Especially because it's already been done ;-)
Two gains:
1. "hg branches" output now matches what the developer docs imply it
should be. It didn't before.
2. If a security fix needs to made to 3.2, it will be much easier to
forward-merge it to the 3.3 and default branches now (the merges won't
suck in a pile of ancient, and unwanted, irrelevant-to-the-fix
changes).
