[cvsnt] Repeat issue: Export doesnt work properlyanymore(2.0.4and 2.0.8)

[Glen Starrett]

A-HA!!!!!!!!!!  I figured out WHY it works for Tony and yet I can
reproduce Bo's problem myself.  Note Tony's command vs. mine and Bo's:

Tony:	cvs -d d:/repo export -r HEAD -d foo -N develop/include cvs 
Me:	cvs -d :pserver:gstarret at stanley:/home/cvsroot export -r HEAD -d
useme2 -N cool/images 
Bo:	cvs export -r HEAD -d WSMDB-CS -N Drivers/sentinel

Tony is using local protocol, vs. pserver for me and ??? For Bo.  I ran
this on my cvsnt 2.0.8 Linux server as verification:

[gstarret at stanley junk]$ cvs -d /home/cvsroot export -r HEAD -d useme1
cool/images
cvs export: Updating useme1
U useme1/cr_logo_hi_contr.gif

[gstarret at stanley junk]$ cvs -d /home/cvsroot export -r HEAD -d useme2
-N cool/images
cvs export: Updating useme2/cool/images
U useme2/cool/images/cr_logo_hi_contr.gif

[gstarret at stanley junk]$ cvs -d :pserver:gstarret at stanley:/home/cvsroot
login
Logging in to :pserver:gstarret at stanley:2401:/home/cvsroot
CVS password:

[gstarret at stanley junk]$ cvs -d :pserver:gstarret at stanley:/home/cvsroot
export -r HEAD -d useme3 cool/images
cvs export: Updating useme3
U useme3/cr_logo_hi_contr.gif

[gstarret at stanley junk]$ cvs -d :pserver:gstarret at stanley:/home/cvsroot
export -r HEAD -d useme4 -N cool/images
cvs export: Updating useme4
U useme4/cr_logo_hi_contr.gif

Case 1:  Local, no -N, is as epected
Case 2:  Local, -N, works properly
Case 3:  pserver, no -N, is as epected
Case 4:  pserver, -N, is broken

--> The problem is in the protocol or the client/server communication
and is NOT a problem in local mode.
