RE: rcvs patches

[Noel Yap]

The locks that "cvs edit -c" affords are advisory
which means that they are only locks in-so-far as
users treat them as locks...  Users can always use
"cvs edit" or "cvs edit -f" to go ahead or force the
edit.  If this is what you had in mind, then the
patches are perfect.  If not, why not?
