Does Darcs, using libcurl, understand ~/.curlrc?  Because if so, perhaps
you could do digest with

    $ cat ~/.curlrc
    digest
    netrc-optional
    $ cat ~/.netrc
    machine example.net
      login twb
      password UNPRINTABLE

PS: my idle speculation in this thread IS idle speculation.  I'm
certainly not advocating anyone try to use an unpatched Darcs in a
security-sensitive environment.
