Once the bug gets fixed then it will make sense to write this up as a
FAQ. It doesn't seem like a good idea to send people down a path that
runs straight into a darcs bug.

As I said, the original repository is no longer available.  Lyle
replaced it with the cleaned-up version.  But if he gives me the OK, I
can send you a copy of the original.
