I'll need some time to look at the rest of this, but just wanted to
mention that building CVS from the upstream repository will produce a
binary with some nasty vulnerabilities. Distributions have lots of
patches they apply for their repositories, see Fedora for example [1].
Good point there. The debian stable CVS (version 2:1.12.13+real-30) is
affected by this issue (and fixed by forcing no USE_MMAP), at least. I
have not checked other distros myself.
