	Possibly nothing.  However, it was my understanding that `cvs update` 
will clobber any files which are different from those in the 
repository.  Checking, I see that this will only happen if I use the 
'-C' flag (which I don't want).  Will update then mark all files which 
are different from the repository as commitable, so I can just commit 
them and be back where I was?  If so, my day just got considerably 
brighter...
