[cvsnt] CVSROOT/cvsrc problems

It was checked out, edited, and then committed.  The commit -c option
does seem to be getting used (the server prevents commits by users who
aren't editors).  I just get that odd message.  I'll mess around a bit
more with line endings, etc and see if anything makes a difference.

No idea, unless there's something odd in the file that's making it
complain...  I usually put an 'update -dP' in the cvsrc files I use.
I'll
have a prod tomorrow and see if I can break it.

Is it checked in or edited directly?  Checked in is better...  I'm not
sure
what the line endings would do otherwise (it occurs to me that that
could
generate the error you're seeing).
