Here's the same exact text on the web, which works fine:
  http://code.haskell.org/darcs/darcs-news/entries/2009-03-29

Unless you're talking in some general sense, i.e. not about darcs per
se, I believe this is not the example you're looking for.  If you want
an example, try
 darcs changes --match 'author Marco || author "Daniel B"'
and in particular:
 DARCS_DONT_ESCAPE_8BIT=1 darcs changes --match 'author Marco || author "Daniel B"

See http://bugs.darcs.net/issue64 for more details.  Looks like the best
thing anybody could do to advance the situation is to code up a solution.
For the moment, most of us are tied down working on other parts of darcs
or the darcs community.

Cheers,
