More Info: CVS Import Bug - Please Respond

[Oproescu Bogdan (KTXA 3)]

   Hi Derek, 

   Thanks for your message below: correct, I run 2 simultaneous imports 
   and I always see corruption in possibly different files, HOWEVER 
   once I see a corruption, it will ALWAYS reappear in the same file 
   from that point on, because that file is now corrupted. 

   Cheers, Bogdan

Which part can you reproduce?  You can run two simultaneous imports and
you always see some corruption in different files, or once you see any
corruption, it always reappears in the same file, or both?

Derek
