best way to synchronize mq patches from a master repo as mq patches to a set of mercurial clones

Greg,
Thanks for your answer. Indeed my usecase is a continuous integration one,
I've already looked to buildbot but for several reasons I cannot go for it
(windows only, deployment concerns...).
However the easiest way to clone a repo along with its patch queue is still
a mercurial topic.
I'm wondering  why there is not existing some 'hg clone/share --mq'
option... Also should be a easy way to update the repo with all new changes
in history and all new patches.
Dorin

PS: However is this 'try' method in buildbot well integrated with mercurial?
Do you know if buildbot works well on windows with both master & slaves
using python2.5.*, last twisted 10.*? ...because on windows is not so easy
to deploy tools with sophisticated tree of dependencies.
Please answer me directly to these PS questions as it's out of topic for
this mailing list.
