Recommended approach for converting from CVSNT to Mercurial?

I hopped on the #cvs2svn IRC channel last night and was told that this
approach (limit conversion to a range of revisions/changesets) does
not exist in that tool.

Not sure what the next step is for debugging this conversion failure.
I'm not a python guy, more of a perl guy (yea, yea...).  :)

I'd appreciate any insight or educated guesses.  Thanks!
