Unfortunately for the OP, that doesn't seem to be applicable to Python
2.x; also, changes made to Python in response to this list don't
usually apply to 2.x either. Mercurial doesn't work with Python 3,
currently, although some of the improvements to the latest Pythons
have been in response to reported issues with hg, so it's possible
that hg might support 3.5 or 3.6 at some point.

I don't know if there's a 2.x-compatible solution to this problem.
