I haven't seen the state of the testboard when Larry pushed, but I 
suspect that he pushed to the main repository exclusively (rather than 
simultaneously to the testboard). Note that the testboard requires a 
"push -f", otherwise Mercurial will refuse to create a new head.

When I just pushed to the testboard a few minutes ago Mercurial replied with

added 67 changesets with 204 changes to 134 files (+1 heads)

(This is a quite normal response, even though I've added only one 
change, since the testboard is not automatically updated w.r.t. the main 
repository, and I am one of the few people who sometimes pushes to the 
testboard. In effect, I've pushed 67 changes (including Larry's 
changeset 6a6f15d8fbc4) that were pushed to the main repository but not 
to testboard.)
