I want to build Sage on 't2', and know I need to apply 3 Mercurial patches to the Sage library - two fix numerical noise issues, the other replaces 'top' by 'prstat').

http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/8374
http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/8375
http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/8391
(all 3 awaiting review by the way).

How can I apply those patches before starting to build Sage? At the point the tar file is extracted, I've no 'mercurial' package built, but I do have 'hg' installed on 't2'. There is no 'devel' directory.

I'd like to be able to apply the patches, type

$ make testlong

and go away and leave it to run.

I tried extracting the file spkg/standard/sage-4.3.3.spkg, but could not work out how to apply the 3 Mercurial patches.

One day I'll get the hang of Mercurial !!
