Which is clearly not the case we are talking about here, so completely
irrelevant.
vcs was defined as the library that calls mercurial via its python API.
What is unclear if you see
from mercurial import xxxx
in a python source?
Of course, if you have a variant of the vcs library that doesn't import
from mercurial then you may slap whatever license you want to the end
product (of course depends on what else *that* vcs depends on then).
