thread apply all where
is the gdb command to get all stack traces.

Every checkout in Mercurial is a fork like that.
The easiest setup is to pick one such checkout
to be your coordination point.

    hg clone http://code.swtch.com/vx32/ vx32-main

Then you can clone vx32-main and push to
and pull from it.  When you want to update you
go into vx32-main and run hg pull, merge, and
then re-pull from your various clones.

If you are on another machine from where vx32-main
is, you can clone it with

    hg clone ssh://kremvax//home/rminnich/vx32-main
