Sorry, I've known about these instances for a while, but I considered
them low priority (more people run darcs than compile it, so user
documentation is more important than compile documentation).

These sound OK to me, but I'd probably take the opportunity to rephrase
them:

    To build darcs you will need GHC 6.6 or higher.

    To build darcs on Mac OS X, you will need the Apple Developer Tools
    and GHC 6.6 or higher.

I think this is wrong; "Some non-ASCII control characters might be
printed -and can possibly spoof the terminal" still applies to current
versions.
