Attempting to install mercurial on 10.6.1 (32bit kernel) I've run into  
the following build error with python:

Reiya:Desktop jpingel$ sudo port install mercurial

Reading over https://trac.macports.org/ticket/20284 and http://www.mail-archive.com/macports-users@lists.macosforge.org/msg16016.html 
  I saw that the issue was apparently fixed so I tried updating the  
ports tree (port selfupdate) and then cleaning all ports (port clean -- 
all all). Same error unfortunately.

Any ideas?
