If no user has ever seen them, it's likely that labelling it "local"
will be of no help to the user in figuring out which is which without
doing the careful semantic analysis.
Also, AFAICT there doesn't need to be any local version of the
conflict at all---eg, with the proposed "darcs pull repo1 ... repoN"
feature. But the merge code won't know that unless it keeps track of
all previous patches (which it may have to do anyway, if so add source
patch information to the tracking data and we're golden; but it sounds
dubious from your other comments).
