[issue241] update and revert produces inconsistent repositories

Hi,

Grab the tarball from http://dulci.org/~faheem/prebug.tar.gz and do the 
following to it. Note prebug has no problems yet.

When running update and revert as follows, wackiness ensues.

faheem at theda:~/prebug$ hg up 678
6 files updated, 0 files merged, 1 files removed, 0 files unresolved
faheem at theda:~/prebug$ hg st
? c++/.RData
? c++/.Rhistory
? c++/environment.new.hpp
faheem at theda:~/prebug$ hg revert -r tip

faheem at theda:~/prebug$ hg st
M python/msipy/__init__.py
M python/msipy/environment.py
M python/msipy/test_environment.py
M test/test_environment.py
M test/test_integrator.py
M test/test_msi.py
A test/test_action.py
R c++/.RData
R c++/.Rhistory
R c++/environment.new.hpp

Voila, bugapalooza! Since .RData etc were never added to the repos, it 
should be impossible to schedule them for removal from the repos.

faheem at theda:~/prebug$ hg ci

Gorblimey. You can grab the result of these operations at 
http://dulci.org/~faheem/buggy.tar.gz in case you can't reproduce it.

                                                         Regards, Faheem.
