Yes, it may very well be: the parser gets fed basically by

   reader = codecs.getreader(encoding)
   log = reader(output of rlor)
   return iterator_over_changeset_from_rlog(log)

so maybe the reader is retaining its input and should be explicitly 
closed, or something like that...

 From within the darcs branch:

$ darcs pull http://darcs.arstecnica.it/tailor

you can omit the explicit address if that's where you "darcs get"ed the 
branch
