No, there were no updates.

Sorry, I did not remember your name. (And thus not remembered I already
pointed it out, otherwise I would not advertise it twice. ;) )

Ah, I see. Maybe you can search back the archives, there was a tool that
acted like patch(1), but with darcs patches. It was in python, IIRC so
it may not be useful for you. I also don't remember if it handled
conflict resolutions at all, and I guess that's where your code fails as
well. ;-)
