I have spent some hours to update your Overlay extension. In the 
attachment you can find a Mercurial bundle that can be unbundled on top of 
your repository.

It fixes the extension up and including to main Mercurial repository 
Changeset 30d4d8985dd8 (at least the clone command mentioned in the Wiki 
works).

| o  changeset:   4970:30d4d8985dd8
| |  user:        Matt Mackall <mpm at selenic.com>
| |  date:        Sun Jul 22 14:53:57 2007 -0500
| |  summary:     transactions: avoid late tear-down (issue641)

This is of course not the current tip, but I could not get any further. 
Matt Mackell revamped the internals that hard in the following changesets 
that I have not been able to follow it any further because of lack of 
internal knowhow.

The critical changes are

| o  changeset:   4971:3e6dae278c99
| |  user:        Matt Mackall <mpm at selenic.com>
| |  date:        Mon Jul 23 20:44:07 2007 -0500
| |  summary:     revlog: regroup parsing code

| o  changeset:   4972:8d0cf46e0dc6
| |  user:        Matt Mackall <mpm at selenic.com>
| |  date:        Mon Jul 23 20:44:07 2007 -0500
| |  summary:     revlog: add revlogio interface
...

where many things changed.

Maybe you see a chance to jump in now that Mid-October is passed.

Best regards

Guido
