This is the darcs repository, it's Antoine's work:

http://community.haskell.org/~aslatter/code/parsec/cps

I don't know about the second question, I think performance and just
inertia were the big factors.  I don't know, for example, if it's like
quickcheck, where the new version is missing a few things that the old
one provided.  Everything appears to work for Pandoc though.

Data.Text support would be wonderful!
