If you try to remove a file and then add a directory with the same name in the same patch, darcs falls over, trying to do openBinaryFile on the directory. I haven't investigated where that's coming from. There's also a missing case in Darcs.Diff.treeDiff for this situation (and the reverse), but that should be trivial to fix.

Same old funnel: regression? test case? and hopefully the investigation. BTS training: hmm, that's actually vaguely reassuring that so many bugs are this cookie-cutter...

There is a test for this and it suceeds.
