Yeah, me too. Attempts at importing some of the X.org trees have
resulted in 'less than ideal' repositories.

I stuck a couple of hacks in cvsps myself to get it to deal with 
X.org trees; the first was to increase a static buffer to 'large enough'
to hold X.org-style commit messages (which are enormous).

shows both minor patches. I should have let people know about these
earlier...
