If you run make check, it isn't the installed darcs that is tested, but
rather the one you just compiled.  The test harness sets the PATH
appropriately.  If you want to run the tests on a darcs other than the one
in the repository, you run

DARCS=/usr/bin/darcs make check

and the harness behaves appropriately.
