The idea of darcs scripting itself (doing a "darcs get" and a "darcs pull" 
from a "darcs get") sounds a bit weird. Still, if it fixes a problem, there 
does not seem to be so much wrong with it. And we don't actually have to start 
new processes of course, we can also do gets and pulls by just calling the 
functions in Darcs.Commands.
