It's possible to catch using a win32 api call (windows doesn't have
signals in the unix sense). I've been thinking about doing it for a
while, but haven't got around to yet. Haven't been annoyed enough by
running a "rm _darcs/lock" every now and then.. ;)
But I can look into it. It's certainly something that should be fixed..
