According to http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/ccvs/src/?root=cvs
this was broken between revs 1.29 and 1.32 for a perion of 4 months
about 4 years ago.
Not sure at all why/how we have the broken version.
Our old code, the latest gnu code and this fix all differ slightly,
but have the same effect.
- remove configure hooks to other os's
- handle symlinks in cvsroot
- configurable CVS local directory name
- unlock patch
- setxid patch (handle setuid CVS and drop privileges correctly)
- when __SSP__ avoid alloca
- admin commands in history
- programmable admin group
- always enforce admin group
- protocol independent network handling (handle ipv6)
- correct issue with wrong revision in resurrected files
- centralize cvs password cleanup in memory
- don't segv if we re-enter exit handlers
- more sprintf -> snprintf
- extra empty line in editor buffer
- alias 't' with 'T' in logmsg.c for compatibility
- alias config "LocalKeyword" with "tag" and "UserAdminOptions" with
"AdminOptions" for compatibility.
- disable Checking-prog and Update-prog for security
- take account of our current umask when computing the mode of files.
