How do you create a refined mana node if you're not Mechanos?

Occasionally I run into other civs who've apparently created refined mana nodes. I can't see how to do this. I realize you need the Machinery tech. But if you don't have technopriests, how do you do it?
 
You shouldn't be able to as far as I am aware.
 
Can a Techpriest hired as a Mercenary do it?

Otherwise, is it possible that the other civ captured Mechanos territory that contained the Refined Mana node?
 
In the svn version, mercenaries are selected randomly from a pool of allowed units. You can find the roster of potential mercenaries in one of the buttons in the top left of the screen. I haven't checked if the techpriests are currently allowed or not.

Edit : Having checked, it's possible but rare to have a techpriest as Mercenary currently
