wx_backup() in wx previously only provided backup of active list
metadata plus the actual data files and it ignored Codemgr_wsdata
directory contents (which contains 'parent' file with path to parent
workspace) so it's definitely a change in the behavior.

Crude workaround:
- add the following lines to the [hooks] section in ~/.hgrc:
pre-restore=pre_restore.ksh
post-restore=post_restore.ksh
- create the scripts (sans error checking) and make sure they are in PATH
- pre_restore.ksh:
hgrc_file=".hg/hgrc"
hgrc_file_paths_orig="$hgrc_file.paths"
/usr/bin/sed -n '/^\[paths\]/,/^[ \t]*$/p' "$hgrc_file" \
> "$hgrc_file_paths_orig" || exit 1
- post_restore.ksh:
hgrc_file=".hg/hgrc"
hgrc_file_paths_orig="$hgrc_file.paths"
tmp_file=`/usr/bin/mktemp /tmp/restore_hook.XXX`
( /usr/bin/sed '/^\[paths\]/,/^[ \t]*$/d' "$hgrc_file"; echo; \
cat "$hgrc_file_paths_orig" ) > "$tmp_file" || exit 1
mv "$tmp_file" "$hgrc_file" || exit 1
v.
