This means that two patches with the same name were committed at the
very same tim (up to the second) by a single person.

This is a known issue with Darcs, and one that we've been arguing
about for ages.  It cannot be fixed without breaking compatibility.

Did you accept Bitkeeper's licence?  Then it's probably illegal for
you to do so for a year.

(I'm only kidding, of course, as Bitkeeper's licence is probably not
enforceable in most locales.  However, I still recommend that you check
with your lawyer before reporting any bugs to Darcs.)
