`hg' (mercurial) does not find `hgsubversion' extension in default search path

hi,

this seems either a problem of the  `hg' or the `hgsubversion' package  
(probably the latter):

after upgrading to hg 2.0, `hg' does no longer find the `hgsubversion'  
extension in its search path, i.e. the entry
`hgsubversion=' (without explicit path) does no longer work in `.hgrc'.

the reason might be that `hg' now seems to use python2.7. at least this is  
my assumption since in the
`hg' executable defines a libpath of

'../lib/python2.7/site-packages'

(don't know relative to what...)

but `hgsubversion' is a python2.6 package and installed in

/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages.


I believe either `hgsubversion' should be made a python2.7 package (if  
this does not cause compatibility issues) or the `hg' searchpath would  
need to include the location of `hgsubversion' (which then probably would  
have to live in a separate directory, rather than in the 2.6 site-packages  
directory).
