This is why the mq extension exists.  :-/

What I would recommend is checking out crew:

setting up the MQ extension (which should be in 0.9):

And use it in combination with hg diff -r -r to split out your patches
and split them up into two pieces:

It's a pain, and I remember trying to submit things in just the same way
you are.  But, the procedure I just outlined is the way to do it.

Please split out the push auto-updating hgrc thing.  Yes, it's a
must-have feature for you, but you aren't going to get anybody else to
accept it by telling them how necessary it is for you.  Your best chance
of getting it included upstream is to split it out and argue for it
separately.

Have fun (if at all possible),
