No, it doesn't any more since I deleted it. People hacking on Cython
can pull from the upstream repo and since the .hg repo doesn' get
installed I consider it pointless to ship it since it increases the
cython.spkg size by 4MB compared to a compressed Cython.spkg of size
600kb or so. Except for eclib no other spkg has the sources checked in
in src and I don't think we should encourage that unless other people
are working on the code on occasion like eclib.
Cheers,
