when trying to apply this i get this message:

soma:~/lisp/ucw mb$ darcs apply patch 
darcs: bug in get_extra.
Most likely this is caused by a bug that existed in darcs prior
to version 1.0.1.  Details for dealing with this issue can be found
at http://darcs.net/DarcsWiki/Issues1.0.1
soma:~/lisp/ucw mb$ cd ../arnesi/

the solution suggested by that page is to use an older version of
darcs, which i don't have. could you try upgrading darcs and
reverting/rerecording the pages?

otherwise i can apply the differences and just create a new patch,
though you'll then have to unrecord your patch and apply mine.

suggestions?

thanks anyway.
