Agreed.  Besides, nowadays you don't need a mirror anymore.  I'm having
good success with the hgsubversion extension
(http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/HgSubversion in combination with
Subvertpy), at least when only dealing with a single branch.  Cloning
the whole repo failed after ca. 102000 (of 180000) revs with an
assertion failure.
