Looks OK from visual inspection.  Nitpicks follow.

The surrounding <SYNOPSIS: > part isn't needed.  I would probably also
clarify that dir *does* exist (as far as pristine is concerned), e.g.

    darcs changes D/f should not list any changes, where D is part of
    the repo and f is a non-existent file.

...since I'm assuming that "adddir dir/" must be recorded in order to
trigger this bug.

I would prefer these comments to describe what *should* happen, rather
than the current behaviour, i.e.

    # Darcs should not list any changes here.
    # Darcs should list the dir creation patch here.

I would also redirect output (>log) so as to test Darcs' exit status,
e.g.

    not darcs changes dir/non-existent-file >log
    not fgrep 'added dir' log
