Hi,
Thanks a lot for your reports. As a side note: although DVC started
with support for tla and then baz, most DVC developers have migrated
away now. And we have very limited time to spend on DVC (I'll be
almost completely offline for a month from now). So, unfortunately,
it's quite unlikely that you get very good support for tla/baz from
the developers. I appologize for that ...
I understand. I'm actually in the process of transitioning myself and
my lab to bzr right now. Part of that process is switching from Xtla
to DVC. I'll need tla for a while during the transition.

Can you elaborate on this ?
What is the --with-arch=tla flag supposed to do? I assumed that it
would set default value of the variable tla-arch-branch to 'tla', but
instead the value is 'baz'.
What do configure say ?
From config.log:
$ ../configure --with-arch=tla
[...]
configure:1702: checking for tla
configure:1718: found /usr/local/bin/tla
configure:1728: result: tla
configure:1752: checking for baz
configure:1768: found /usr/local/bin/baz
configure:1778: result: baz
[...]
configure:1845: checking arch branch to use
configure:1878: result: tla
[...]
## ----------------- ##
## Output variables. ##
## ----------------- ##
ARCH='baz'
ARCH_BRANCH='tla'
BAZ='baz'
[This last bit might be the problem?]
M-x dvc-open-internal-log-buffer RET will tell you what DVC actually
runs.
Commands obey the value of tla-arch-branch.

Not the way we implemented it. tla-browse and baz-browse are just
aliases. I added this `baz-*' aliases because my fingers started to
get used to typing "baz something" in a shell, and wanted to type
baz-something in Emacs. If you want to change dynamically, you have
M-x tla-use-{baz|tla} RET, but DVC keeps a cache of some configuration
data (whether your version of tla/baz has such or such feature), and
switching from one to the other without flushing this cache would be
problematic.
Okay, that's fine.
