It has been stated multiple times this week that this error means your
Mercurial version is too old.  I couldn't verify this though.

But you should be able to fetch the kernel source tarball instead of
cloning it with Mercurial with this command:

% make world XEN_LINUX_SOURCE=tarball

Unfortunately, this didn't work for me either.  It leads to this error
message when trying to compile the kernel:

% make[4]: Entering directory 
`/root/build/xen-3.2.0/build-linux-2.6.18-xen_x86_32'
% make -C /root/build/xen-3.2.0/linux-2.6.18 
O=/root/build/xen-3.2.0/build-linux-2.6.18-xen_x86_32 vmlinuz
% make[6]: *** No rule to make target `vmlinuz'.  Stop.
% make[5]: *** [vmlinuz] Error 2
% make[4]: *** [vmlinuz] Error 2
% make[4]: Leaving directory 
`/root/build/xen-3.2.0/build-linux-2.6.18-xen_x86_32'
