We have CVS, not SVN and thus there is no version throughout the repository. 
And I didn't add any CVS tag.

Using CVS head is always recommended if you are in development as you can take 
advantage of bugfixes and report back anything that is still buggy. On the 
other hand, I wouldn't recommend to use a CVS version if you are near a product 
release, since CVS isn't tested as broadly as release candidates. As such, you 
risk having (newly introduced) bugs in the code when you release it.

I don't think there will be a 1.3.3 version since I don't have the time to 
create an 1.3.2 branch and merge back bugfixes. And the next CVS HEAD based 
release will be 1.4.0 since there have been already some port-breaking changes.
