[darcs-users] Per-directory version control

I mentioned a use case briefly in an earlier email that didn't generate any
discussion, I'm going to ask a more pointed question about it.
I have a project, foo, which is a library for a programming language. It has
a bunch of development oriented directories and files in it:
foo-project/
test/
src/
foo/ <--- Exported
testing/
back-compatible-visitors/
docs/
design/
todo/
...
This library is also included with the core distribution of the language, but
not the entire project is included with the distribution, so I export the
src/foo directory to the language's CVS repository:
bar-language/
src/
test/
libs/
foo/ <--- Imported
documentation/
...
Obviously, it would be really handy for me to be able to use darcs to
cross-post changes; the usefulness of this would be even more evident if the
language's repository was a darcs, not a CVS, repository.
This is a practical example of a topic which has come up numerous times in
this mailing list, and which, I feel, has never been adequately addressed[1].
So, my question is:
What is the recommended process for expediting cross-pollination of
subdirectories in darcs repositories?
[1] Here I have to voice my frustration with mailman for not providing any
mechanism for searching the archive.
