When you fetch the darcs head, you don't get the C versions of all the
various Scheme files, including the compiler, so you need to have
an existing csc on the system to even start.  This doesn't affect
people who are installing a tarball, but if you are trying to
install the current head, the issue is how old the installed
compiler can be before it doesn't work.
