Hm, how is that different from the sbcl and cmucl repositories? They are also large but I found it feasible to work with them.
Upstream is not maintained in darcs and the new upstream is not pulled in via darcs. In both cases the 'debian' version uses darcs for the debian changes, but if a new upstream version comes out I use CVS to update the upstream and the debian trees to the newest version. Trying to update the upstream tree with something, registering with darcs and pulling that into the debian tree simply does not work with the current darcs implementation. I left the merge running for _days_ :-( Still the advantages of darcs outweigh that little problem.
