Since you're working on an AWT fix, I suggest using the awt repository. 
The following command does the job for me:

$ hg clone http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7/awt/jdk

Note that the hg server has experienced some instability issues 
recently. Perhaps you just happened to try cloning when it was down. You 
can always check its status by pointing your web-browser to the 
repository's http:// url. If that loads well, the 'hg clone' should work 
fine as well.
