We'd welcome help. Try running darcs check instead of `make test'. It
darcs check (with test) works, then Eric's suspicicions are probably on
track, and it's something in your environment. If it's the DARCS
environment variable, then it's a feature (allowing you to run the test
suite with a different darcs, which can be useful), and you just need to
fix that before running. If it's something else, perhaps we need to
cleanse the environment a bit before running.
