That will cause a commit failure if true.

All commits with the string usr in the pathname will work.

All commits to any other module will run this script.

Then you will not be able to commit to any file other than those which
contain usr in the pathname

CVSROOT/verifymsg might do something.

You should consider using the -t switch to trace what is happening:

  cvs -t commit -m 'Your log message' file-to-commit

the -t switch should tell you wish scripts are being run and with which
arguments. If you are using cvs 1.12.x, then multiple -t switches will
give you more detail.
