Yay, thanks Tommy!

All going in, except for the GUI stuff.

I might just wait till David gets back to see what he thinks.

I'm going to sneak a test suite tweak into unstable.  It's minor enough.
I had been using --no-test and well, you get what you pay for.

Ok.  Although if nobody else says anything on darcs-users, I think I
kinda want to change it (again!) to 'show' with list/query as aliases.

No. Only one of them is listed for now, by the way.  Manifest is
hidden for now.

Yes.

At first, I was going to point out that the patches might just compile
with 6.4.2 (don't know).  But then I got to thinking that if somebody
has 6.4.1, it seems like they would find it kind of pointless to upgrade
just to 6.4.2 anyway, yet they would still prefer not making the 6.6
leap if they can avoid it.  So yeah.
