Do you have problems with http://mdounin.ru/hg/nginx-vendor-*?  It 
really contains all versions and works AFAIK.

You may find them here:

http://mdounin.ru/files/nginx-0.1.0.tar.gz
http://mdounin.ru/files/nginx-0.3.59.tar.gz

I don't really think it's right thing to do since no real merge 
happened.  And, actually, after stable has been switched to 0.6.* 
there were new versions in 0.5.* branch.  I think the better 
aproach is to maintain numbered branches.
