I'm not sure how old your version of vc-hg.el is but it's a small patch which
could probaly be easily applied manually.  It's no big deal in this case but
generally it would be good if you could switch to bzr so that you know your
reports are against up-to-date source.

Doh!  I've committed a change accordingly.
