I now think this is actually only needed for CVS.  Subversion and
Mercurial will return an "I" in dirstate for ignored files -- it would
be faster to use that than to parse the ignore file explicitly. But
this will requires that I change (vc-state) to return an 'ignored
state.

Maybe you should hold off until I've reworked the repertoire of 
state properties.
