I'd guess that the only way to keep those functional is to keep
svn.python.org around in read-only mode.

Although I'm not entirely sure about that - would it be possible to
build up a mapping from svn revision numbers to hg repository IDs as the
history information is being migrated? If that wasn't too difficult, it
might be worth doing.

Cheers,
Nick.
