I've seen some tool scripts that do it, or at least assist you in doing 
it, but I've never tried them.  Something else that I've never tried is 
Hg's ability to maintain patch collections, (although I think they call 
it something else.)  Basically a patch collection is just what it sounds 
like, but you are able to tweak and update the patches independently of 
each other.  I think that the tools for pushing changes to an svn 
repository use this patch collection feature, where each patch gets 
committed to svn as an independent change-set.
