It is possible that someone has somehow managed to add a corrupted 
commit to the repository. Is anybody else having problems?

You could try to see if the problem is a specific commit by using: hg 
incoming to get a list of the potential downloads followed by 
sequentially pulling the individual commits with hg pull -r X with X as 
the listed commit ID once for each listed commit in oldest to newest order.
