I saw where you did some updates that created some patch conflits to
logmsg.c and commit.c, so I have created a new diff for you to use and
attached it to the http://ccvs.cvshome.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=19
issue.

The new diff removes the RereadLogAfterVerify which I no longer
consider necessary now that there is no need to support a 'stat'
method to reread the log message file with the sleep_past() delay
problems it would have introduced.

This new patch should make the cvshome.org version of cvs behave the
same as the FreeBSD version of cvs with no extra configuration
required.

Okay, let me know if you need to have me do any other work on this
patch.

        Thanks,
