I finally verified and tested this, and changed the wiki page accordingly:

https://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/HackableMercurial?action=diff&rev2=51&rev1=49

After unzipping mercurial-2.6-hackable.zip, you need to rename the
hg-python26 directory to hg-python.

Otherwise you will get the error message: "ImportError: No module named os".
