Things like .hgrc settings, installing and configuring toolchains, staging build scripts, etc.  I think I've read some of Greg's about how Mozilla does it, and we're basically trying to solve the same problems.

There's nothing detailed out in the public domain; however, it's not a 
secret that we use chef for all our system configuration, including 
deciding which packages to install, and putting /etc/mercurial in place 
on developer systems.

In turn, we build an in-house Mercurial package that bundles up all our 
extensions and Mercurial itself into a nice atomic lump for chef to play 
with.
