Update Mercurial up to 0.9.5.

Announce: http://www.selenic.com/pipermail/mercurial/2007-October/015150.html

Highlights:

* New extensions: alias, children, imerge, interhg, record
* hgweb: support for Atom feeds
* convert extension: support for Subversion and Darcs

NOTE: I've removed the .egg-info file from pkg-plist, the port does not seem
to create it (manual install does) so removing the port fails.

A bug in our /bin/sh is making one of the tests fail when looking for a

is irrelevant to FreeBSD, remove the offending line to avoid tripping on
the bug on older systems.

This should fix hgmerge on these systems.
