Darcs' patch theory has nothing at all to do with program semantics.
Program semantics and the order in which *independent* patches are
applied are thoroughly unrelated.  The keyword here is independent --
meaning, patches which do not depend on other patches to be applied.

Program semantics is a unit-testing and integration-testing issue.  If
merging a patch breaks a build, roll back the changes.  It's just as
easy to do with darcs as it is with CVS or SVN.  If you're attempting
to use your SCM tool for semantics checking, you've got bigger
problems.
