Question about export -kv and binaries

Hi,
in my company we have a Java web project that we control with CVS. When we
do a release build, we run a buildscript that starts with a cvs export -kv
on the correct tag and builds the release from there.
The project also contains a lib/ subdirectory containing (third-party)
jarfiles that had been checked in with -kb, however when we export as
above it seems that somehow substitutions take place in the jarfiles,
corrupting them. When we take out the -kv on export the build goes fine,
however this is not desirable (we log messages with version strings in
them, and $-signs seem to mess up the logging filters).
I tried adding a line "*.jar -k 'b'" to cvswrappers but this hasn't
helped. Is there any other way to prevent keyword substitution from
happening on these files?

TIA for any help, Ton
