The current situation is this:

   (1) lxbroy10 is the recommend ssh login server for pushes right now, 
since it uses a completely different Mercurial installation on Linux 
version.  You merely need to reconfigure your .hg/hgrc like this:

   [paths]
   default = ssh://wenzelm@lxbroy10//home/isabelle-repository/repos/isabelle

in analogy to usual host switching, using your own login name, of course.

   (2) The local sysadmins are working on replacement of the Mercurial 2.4 
from SuSE 12.2, which is potentially the cause problems here.

   (3) We watch closely what happens, and think again later.
