        * root.h (cvsroot_t): Add dirpath to the structure.

        * root.c (new_cvsroot_t, free_cvsroot_t): Handle new dirpath
        element.
        (expand_directory): Add new function to canonicalize a
        cvsroot directory.
        (parsed_cvsroot, local_cvsroot): Use it.

        * lock.c (lock_name): Use current_parsed_root->dirpath first, then
        fall back to current_parsed_root->directory if needed. This fixes
        the problem of using LockDir when the CVSROOT has a symbolic link
        in it.
        
        * sanity.sh (Server): New test for LockDir config item with and
        without CVSROOT using a symbolic link directory.
