The checkexact() helper function was calling repo.rollback() from inside
an open transaction. In addition to being insane, this is unnecessary
because import will release the transaction on an exception.
It turns out that this has been broken since the feature was first
introduced, first released in v1.0:

description:
Add import --exact.
When this option is set, import will apply the patch (which must
be generated by export) to the parents specified in the patch,
and check that the node produced by the patch matches the node
ID in the patch.
Many tests didn't change back from subdirectories at the end of the tests ...
and they don't have to. The missing 'cd ..' could always be added when another
test case is added to the test file.
This change do that tests (99.5%) consistently end up in $TESTDIR where they
started, thus making it simpler to extend them or move them around.
With "wp1" and "wp2" the current working directory parents, "p1" and "p2" the
patch parents and "parents" the resulting commit parents, the current behaviour
is:
--bypass --exact p2 parents
0 0 0 [wp1, wp2]
0 0 1 [wp1, wp2]/buggy
0 1 0 [p1]
0 1 1 [p1, p2]
1 0 0 [wp1, wp2]
1 0 1 [p1, p2]
1 1 0 [p1]
1 1 1 [p1, p2]
The original behaviour before 1f543fd375c5 was:
--bypass --exact p2 parents
0 0 0 [wp1, wp2]
0 0 1 if p1 == wp1 then [p1, p2] otherwise [wp1, wp2]
0 1 0 [p1]
0 1 1 [p1, p2]
This patch restores the previous behaviour when --bypass is not set, and align
--bypass behaviour when --exact is not set with merge diffs.
