merge-stdlib was a branch Carl Meyer worked on at PyCon.  The idea was we
kept a single stdlib dir, modified as necessary in that dir, and just used
hg to merge up with newer versions of CPython, rather than keeping a
-modified dir around.  "merge" therefore refers to merging -modified and no
-modified, not merging with upstream.
