What did I do wrong?
Nothing. The way this works is that each package has its own "normal"
repository, which knows what its tip is. The all-packages repo is a
specially structured repository, which doesn't actually store any
content. Instead, it stores repo URLs for the actual packages, and a
specific revision to checkout when you do a clone.
There's a skew between gnus tip and the revison specified by the
packages repo. I don't know why; Mike Kupfer and/or Norbert can tell
you.
This is a normal operating mode for some Mercurial workflows. I don't
know if it's normal for XEmacs, I haven't done much work in packages
since we switched them to Mercurial.
