This was likely my case, as I use make disttest as part of the fire and
forget staging repo for pushing patches to stable.

David: do you think we could move the franchise test from darcs into
franchise (i.e. maybe franchise could do a lazy get of darcs?)  This
still gives you a chance to make sure the franchise stuff is working,
without annoying everybody else (I say this after fielding my third
complaint about make disttest)

Alternatively, we could look at that cabalisation patch bundle I've been
dreading.  More on that later...
