I'm afraid I don't know the answer to your questions - I don't seem to 
encounter the same issues here.  But I have put my statically linked darcs 
binary for Windows up, it's linked from the wiki:

Also I've provided the script that I use for using darcs with Cygwin SSH. 
I've never managed to get to grips with Putty.  Enjoy :)

Cheers,
