Without a repeatable test case, there's nothing we can do
with this bug report, sorry.  If it reappears, feel free to
post more information and we can re-open the bug.

For what it is worth, I haven't gotten any of these errors
since I stopped trying to use darcs on lots of large binary
patches containing 100's of MB per patch.

So I suspect the bug is triggered by certain memory usage
patterns...

If the darcs devs can confirm that this is most likely a bug
in GHC, as opposed to a bug in darcs due to use of FFI or
unsafeWhatNot, then we'll look into it.  We need a repro
case (the repository that caused the failure, at least), and
the same darcs sources.
