that may be because of the path names used by 'darcs diff', or because
the line numbers no longer match, as this was the third patch in a series.

i have had bad experiences with 'darcs send', which requires me to do
'darcs record': i never know when, whether, or in what form my patches
make it into the main repo, which means that my repo is out of sync
after a record (not to mention that my changes no longer show up in
whatsnew, fooling me into believing i've got a pristine tree, or that 
darcs add so much context to even the smallest patches).

anyway, i've recorded/sent my three ghci patches and attach the
result for your convenience. i'll do a 'darcs unrecord' locally before
the next pull, perhaps that avoids my troubles from previous times.
