No direct experience, but CVS Rivendell (as of a few days back) supports 
sample rate conversion on the fly (courtesy of libsamplerate), so you should 
be able to just run everything at 48K and let Rivendell handle converting the 
44.1K files at playout time.

Of course this requires that Darkice is happy at 48K which I am not sure 
about.
