The maintenance burden for 2.4 support in hglib is currently zero, so I don't
see a reason to do this. If, for some crazy reason, someone has a Python2.4-
based hglib app that they don't want to update, they needn't run it against a
Python2.4-compatible hg. Since basically every 2.x release required fixes in
Mercurial itself, this isn't a particularly unlikely scenario[1].

On the other hand, if you're planning substantial work on hglib that depends on
2.6 features, I'm happy to listen.

[1] Compare that to the Perl-based db-backed fulltext search engine I have
running on my mail server that's been running unattended for about 18 years.
