Did you really want 2243 replies to your message that all said, "Nope, I
haven't seen that problem here." ?  The reason no one responded was
because no one knew what the problem was.

FWIW, "Nope, I haven't seen that problem here."  Did you run 'cvs init'
once, prior to any other cvs command?  That would have initialized your
chosen $CVSROOT directory and put a default 'modules' file and
'cvswrappers' file into $(CVSROOT)/CVSROOT.

$ export CVSROOT=/cvs
$ cvs init
$ cvs checkout CVSROOT
$ cd CVSROOT
$ <edit cvswrappers, etc>
$ cvs commit
$ cvs release
$ cd ..
$ rm -rf CVSROOT

No clue.  In the future, please separate different topics into separate
emails -- this helps keep the mailing list archives a useful reference.
