  $ darcs add file:dir/foo:bar
  darcs: file:dir: getSymbolicLinkStatus: does not exist (No such file or 
directory)

  $ darcs add file://dir/foo:bar
  darcs: file:: getSymbolicLinkStatus: does not exist (No such file or 
directory)

And even:

  $ darcs add ./foo:bar
  darcs: ./foo:bar: getSymbolicLinkStatus: does not exist (No such file or 
directory)

But:

  $ cd ..
  $ darcs add dir/foo:bar

(I.e. this is OK)
