For anyone curious, the following is a list of all the places in 
Mercurial that construct filectx's without providing a changeid/ctx:

     File "/data/users/durham/hg/hgext/children.py", line 47, in children
     File "/data/users/durham/hg/hgext/keyword.py", line 231, in linkctx
     File "/data/users/durham/hg/mercurial/commands.py", line 5335, in 
parents
     File "/data/users/durham/hg/mercurial/context.py", line 1711, in 
parents
     File "/data/users/durham/hg/mercurial/context.py", line 900, in parents
     File "/data/users/durham/hg/mercurial/copies.py", line 268, in makectx
     File "/data/users/durham/hg/mercurial/merge.py", line 1040, in 
applyupdates
     File "/data/users/durham/hg/mercurial/tags.py", line 120, in 
findglobaltags
     File "/data/users/durham/hg/mercurial/tags.py", line 122, in 
findglobaltags

Eventually I'd like to get rid of all of these (except perhaps the tag 
stuff), so we can enable non-revlog based storage.
