Summary:  Potential overflow on CVS server command line

Original Submission:  Savannah currently uses a standard cvs server. All the 
allowed root files are therefore passed as a lonmg series of "--allow-root 
/cvsroot/foo" options.

On Linux the size limit for a command line is 64 KBytes so at about say 40 
chars per option, the command overflow will show up when we'll approach 1600 
projects.
