What file system are you using?
Have you tried 'hg clone -U'?

There are a few cases with hg where the repository your trying to clone has a file stored in its repo that is longer than a valid path on certain Plan 9 file systems.  This is the case for go, python, and a few other prominent repositories.  In the case of go, getting the repo cloned without the update can work, because it doesn't fail during the file walk that would be invalid during temporary reconstruction if the work area file space.  Then an update to tip later will actually work because it bypasses the garbage file that was replaced|moved in a later commit.
