You can't set $CVSROOT/CVSROOT to be accessed only by root and expect
CVS to operate properly.  Many CVS commands need to read the files in
$CVSROOT/CVSROOT and processes need write permissions to the val-tags
and sometimes the history file.  It _is_ possible to take write
permissions for the directory and all the files in it away from everyone
but root and set write permissions for everybody for only val-tags and
the history file if you are using it.
