Thanks, Wim. I have pushed a patch to undo the change.
I have also thought it through deeper. Whereas my first reaction was
"sure, I don't see why not", my new thinking is that we should avoid
this feature because
1. it adds confusion between escaping for darcs and escaping for
regexps
2. it introduces an inconsistency between quoted and unquoted mode
KISS, in other words. So, sorry Dave but thanks anyway. On the other
hand, if anybody disagrees with this and really wants to see escaped
quotes in matchers, please speak up.
(Sigh... Eric needs to learn to run make and not just make test)
