After a bit more fiddling this morning, it looks like the problem
is that a change made in the same second as an update won't be
detected.

$ rm *
$ hg update -C 38 ; echo "1.1.1" > buildno
7 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ hg status
$ more buildno
1.1.1
$ hg cat buildno
1.1.0

I'll go visit the bug tracker.
