Looks like a step in the right direction to me.  Sounds like you want
to treat DarcsFlag sort of like a parsing task.  You are creating the
abstract "syntax" via custom types and you translate from raw
[DarcsFlag] to the custom types and then use those.  I only skimmed
your implementation though and it looks to require a lot of changes.

The worst thing I see is that the stuff I've been doing lately
directly conflicts with the stuff you've been doing.  This is means
that which ever patch bundle gets accepted creates a ton of work for
the other person.
