Is there some reason these haven't been applied?

Probably a mixture of (a) your message looked like an auto-mailed commit; (b) the short patch message did not mention which package/modules it was changing; (c) no one person has direct responsibility for the base package anyway.

and (d) incompetence on my part :-)

I've merged your patches back into the CVS tree, but something went wrong when I applied them to the main darcs repo of packages/base:

Finished applying... Fail: Invalid --match pattern 'hash hash001)</comment>'. "match" (line 1, column 13): unexpected ")" expecting white space, operator or end of input Posthook ran successfully.

Someone should probably check what happened there, because I don't have a clue.

It's something to do with the commit mailer, I'll look into it. Cheers, Simon
