Great!  Thanks for that.

I'm betting that if you darcs get the hashed and darcs-2 repositories on
to the regular case insensitive filesystems, it might work.  Could you
try that?

If this works, it should be possible for Windows users to do this test
(albeit from a tarball)

The difference between hashed and old format in the beginning is pretty
dramatic.  But then it seems to drop down.  I wonder why.
