Well, it's hard to say I'm expecting the wrong thing, especially since
the rename can very distant in the original repository's history.  The
inability to merge in an innocent looking change can be pretty
mysterious to someone how doesn't remember all of the history of the
repo.

But if that's how it works, that's how it works.  I use darcs becuse
the patch-theory makes many other operations a lot more usable.
