It's strange. If I run the cvs operation from my Perl build script,
I get "Protocol error" torwards the end of the checkout. If I execute
the same command, in the same directory from a shell prompt, the checkout
works fine.
I'm surprised more people aren't running into this problem. I'm not doing
anything special and my repository is not that big.
