Ah. I thought I was missing something there.

Here's that output:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

As before, nothing is different from the old repo except the node ID of r183 (and its descendants). The extra information is present and equal in both repoes; it's the information from our original conversion from Subversion to Mercurial.
