So, I have tried dozens of revisions now and I can't find one that builds fine.
This is becoming really frustrating, especially since the history with Mercurial
seems completely random.

I would normally expect a changeset that was checked in in July to be included
in a revision that was checked in in August. I don't understand how one is supposed
to perform bi-secting with Mercurial if something as basic as a working history
doesn't work in Mercurial.
