Customizing the VC backend order

[dhruva]

Hi,
 i am trying to have mercurial as the first VC backend to be tried
before falling back on CVS (and the rest). I tried modifying the order
in "vc-handled-backends" in my dotemacs file. That does not help. I
really need this to be able to work completely from emacs, any help in
this regard is appreciated.
 Another query: When we specify a backend, does the case matter?
Example, HG and Hg, are the equivalent?

with best regards,
dhruva
