Actually, as of 1.11.7, it outputs that "checkout"
instead of "server" for you.

There is nothing wrong. In fact, something is fixed.

Excerpt from the NEWS file:
|Changes from 1.11.6 to 1.11.7:
|
|...
|
|* In client/server mode, most messages from CVS now contain the actual
|command name rather than the generic "server".
|...

src/ChangeLog says this:
|2003-08-27  Larry Jones  <address@hidden>
|
|       * history.c: 'P' is a valid record type and has been for a long time.
|       Add it to the comments, usage message, and, most important,
|       ALL_REC_TYPES so it gets recorded by default.
|       * server.c (do_cvs_command): Set global command_name to the real
|       command name rather than leaving it set to "server".
|       * sanity.sh: Update to match.
|       (Reported by Dmitry Ryzhkov <address@hidden>.)

I hope this information is useful to you.

        Enjoy!
