If we don't find a solution to this soon, we may have to delay
our 2008-11-15 release or collapse it with the 2008-11-30 one.

For the interested, we now have patches to build darcs on GHC 6.10.1,
but piping input to darcs does not work (it does if you use an earlier
version of GHC).  This causes test suite failures, and as Trent points
out, puts a cramp in some people's workflow.

Any ideas for workarounds?
