It's impossible to get the ghc source with darcs on windows
Annoyingly darcs crashes every time I try to get the ghc sources. This is a problem with both darcs 1.0.8 and 1.0.9
$ darcs get --partial http://darcs.haskell.org/ghc
This is the GHC darcs repository (HEAD branch)

Applying patch 42 of 209... darcs.exe: bug in darcs!
Impossible case at PatchRead.lhs:58 compiled 23:01:08 Jun 4 2007
Please report this to bugs@darcs.net,
If possible include the output of 'darcs --exact-version'.
Perhaps creating a new snapshot point could fix it?
