darcs-all work around for darcs Issue 467
The darcs "Issue467: darcs changes --context interferes with --repodir" (http://bugs.darcs.net/issue467) causes this failure:
$ perl darcs-all changes --context
== running darcs changes --context

== running darcs changes --context --repodir nofib
darcs failed: Not a repository: nofib (nofib/_darcs/inventory: openBinaryFile: does not exist (No such file or directory))
darcs failed: 512 at darcs-all line 57.
David Roundy found that "When given an absolute path, --context and --repodir work together fine."
Here is a patch to darcs-all that uses this work around to repair perl darcs-all changes --context.
