New submission from gabriele renzi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

the new reporting facility is nice,. but there is one event that is not 
reported:
<pre>
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/darcs$ darcs get http://fooa.hup

darcs failed:  Not a repository: http://fooa.hup (Failed to download URL
http://fooa.hup/_darcs/inventory: couldn't resolve host name)
</pre>
If the connection/name server is down or very slow darcs will hang indefinitely
before giving the error message/progress report. 
Something like "Tryng to connect.." would be nice, i.e.
<pre>
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/darcs$ darcs get http://fooa.hup
Trying to connect to fooa.hup..
darcs failed:  Not a repository: http://fooa.hup (Failed to download URL
http://fooa.hup/_darcs/inventory: couldn't resolve host name)
</pre>
