This works if you set up passwordless ssh back to your own machine and set
the envvars to point cvs at ssh rather than rsh.


Also, a couple of packaging points:

- I don't think re-autotooling was necessary.

- Your port notes in the README don't mention the change from gdbm to
flat-file.


So, this is basically stock 1.11.5, which I have been using for my
day-to-day cvs-ing for months.


Max.
