>Description:
        For some reason the substitution of %s in logfile was
        changed from
          'dir file1 file2'
        in 1.11 to
          "dir file1 file2"
        in 1.11.1p1 (if the two files dir/file1 and dir/file2 were committed).
        There may be a good reason for this change but it was not
        documented in the list of changes, and this meant it took
        me some time to discover why my line in logfile similar to:
           xxx Mail -s "CVS commit of %s" user1 user2
        suddenly made CVS try to send e-mails also to file1 and file2
        (and with a truncated subject: CVS commit of dir) !
