I've failed to successfully extract fwrap from hg.cython.org/gsoc-kurt
using 'hg convert'.  Do you (or anyone else) have experience
extracting a directory from a hg repo into its own repo?  We could
always just copy the directory (gsoc-kurt/Tools/fwrap) and make a new
repo with no history, I guess.
