OK, in my home directory on darcs.haskell.org, there is a new binary of
Xtract, which implements the -n flag as shown in the example above, to
squash entity references to their textual equivalents. Someone with the
appropriate permissions should be able to modify the
commit-messages-split.sh script to use Xtract in place of grep and sed.

Oops. Bug still present. (The crash is due to the trailing / character
in the query.)
