Comment(by warner):
I see no code to perform caching in Twisted
(twisted.python.procutils.which) or in buildbot.
Now, if darcs was the only thing in your stow environment, then
/usr/local/bin itself would be a symlink to /usr/local/stow/blabblah/bin,
and then you could get tripped up by some bit of code which abspath'ed
everything in {{{os.environ["PATH"]}}} at process launch time. If that
were happening, then unstowing darcs wouldn't be enough to get
/usr/local/stow/blahblah/bin off your PATH, and if darcs were still there,
it would try to run it (instead of trying to run /usr/bin/darcs or
whatever).
But that neither explains the problem you're seeing nor sounds very
likely.
