Without further information, I'd like to suspect haskeline here. Can
you tell xdarcs to use stdio instead of allocating a pty? That ought
to convince Darcs that it's talking to a script (not a human).
You may also want to check how vc-darcs.el and darcsum.el do things,
since AFAIK they both still work, though I haven't checked lately...
