Branch + date inconsistency?

[David Jencks]

I'm having some trouble checking out a branch as of a date.  I find that
files added to head before the date I request and merged to the branch
after the date I request are being checked out.  What can be wrong?

This example is publically accessible from the jboss cvs.

Note that the file was added to head on  2002/09/30 13:05:27

I am requesting checkout as of 2002-10-02 02:00 +0000

the file was merged to Branch_3_2 on 2002/11/08 16:35:34

yet it appears in the checkout.

cvs checkout command:

$ cvs -d :pserver:address@hidden:/cvsroot/jboss co -r
Branch_3_2 -D"2002-10-02 02:00 +0000" jboss


cd jboss

$ cvs log
