I've added a comment on the wiki that this error should not happen with
newer darcs version. Perhaps changing the message or calling "bug" would
make it clearer to the user that it's an error in the code. I don't
think the test should be removed (yet), because it's only called when
there is a problem with apply_to_slurp.
