Hello,
That was a fast response!
I tried compiling with both --disable-optimize and --disable-mmap
(hints I got from the darcs.net binaries page under Solaris), but it
doesn't resolve this issue.
Unfortunately, I cannot volunteer the machine as a buildbot since
it's a work machine. However, I'm more than willing to compile things
and report my findings or bugs to help the community.
Is there any way to get more detailed information about the nature
of the error?

Hello,
I have compiled darcs-2.0.0 on opensolaris x86 with ghc 6.8.2.
When I run "darcs whatsnew", or any command that accesses
the darcs database, such as "add" "changes", etc... I get the
following fromJust errors.
$ darcs whatsnew
darcs: bug in darcs!

I'm unable to check http://darcs.net/maintenance to see if this version is
supported.
If it is is supported, please report this to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
If possible include the output of 'darcs --exact-version'.
Thanks for trying darcs on OpenSolaris and reporting your findings.
Looking at line 347 in SlurpDirectory, I see that this depends on mmap. Could
it be possible that we need a Workaround for mmap on your platform?
Could you please try building again but this time add --disable-mmap to your
configure and then tell us if you get the same results.
Is this a machine which could be used as a buildbot slave? I think OpenSolaris
is somewhat exotic and we don't yet have a slave running it so it could be
quite valuable to darcs development and to keeping your machine supported.
See here for more details about buildbots:

You can talk to Zooko to for more details about getting setup and any to also
answer other questions you might have.
