It makes the parsing simpler if we always have the same number of columns

Our END block was calling system, which alters $?. So now we save and
restore it.

currently deepseq, parallel, stm.

At least until we switch to --lazy being the default

The comments explain how darcs-all decides what repo to use

We now use it for libffi and the mingw tarballs

  UNDO: Add -r option to darcs-all, and remove push-all (#3375)
  Contributed by: seliopou@gmail.com
      
  This patch modifies darcs-all to have feature parity with push-all by
  recognizing two new options.
  
      * -i, equivalent to --ignore-failure in push-all
      * -r <repo>, specifies the remote repository darcs commands will use
  
  Some example commands:
  
  Get the libraries from a repository of your choosing. This is useful
  when working with a git mirror:
  
      $ ./darcs-all -r http://darcs.haskell.org get
  
  Pull changes. Used to be:
  
      $ ./push-all --pull http://darcs.haskell.org
  
  Is now:
  
      $ ./darcs-all -r http://darcs.haskell.org pull
  
  Or to use the default remote of the ghc repository:
  
      $ ./darcs-all pull

    M ./darcs-all -79 +33
    A ./push-all

This fixes a problem where darcs tries to update it while perl has it
open. On Windows this fails. Spotted by Claus Reinke.

* New packages format lets you select source control system in use
* Packages file now includes root repo explicitly
* Scripts darcs-all and push-all updated for the new packages format only
* New sync-all script, intended for use after Git changeover and for buildbots right now
* Had to remove libraries/bootstrapping from tree since Git cannot track empty directories without a hack
* Determine checkout date with Git using Darcs fallback in aclocal.m4

It's now easier to add new repos anywhere in the source tree

We no longer create those directories
