sitka>rsh ..
The authenticity of host '.. (0.0.0.0)' can't be established.
DSA key fingerprint is 43:95:a3:04:08:5b:6d:f0:a5:ea:98:84:9c:30:8a:96.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? 

sitka>ls -l `which rsh`
lrwxr-xr-x    1 root     sys     3 Mar 16  2000 /usr/local/bin/rsh -> ssh

When I fix it to use the real rsh, the tests complete OK.

I appreciate your attention on this.  FYI, I've been using CVS 1.11.1p1
in spite of all this, doing cross-continent remote updates and
