And happily it can be invoked as "cvs server" on the command
line, to support the local repository case and make development
easier.  Thanks for the pointer, it's just what I need.

The libcvs project has now been approved (thanks Derek?), so if
you're curious take a look at libcvs.cvshome.org.  I've written
some design docs for the API, and now we're working on an
implementation of the CVS client purely in Perl.
