I had been using cvsup successfully to sync with the XFree86 CVS tree,
but after returning from vacation it has started to fail with what
appears to be an internal error in the client. 

***
*** runtime error:
***    Segmentation violation - possible attempt to dereference NIL0
***
 
  use option @M3stackdump to get a stack trace
Aborted


I will include the stackdump below and my config file, I didn't see
anything in the stackdump that meant anything to me. I did update my
cvsup client to the latest and I checked the cvsup web site looking for
possible causes/solutions. The only thing I found was if you DNS could
not reverse map your ip address you could get a similar failure, but my
DNS server can do the reverse mapping fine. So I'm a bit perplexed,
anybody have a suggestion as to what may be the problem. Like I said,
this has all been working fine previously. The only thing I can think of
is that my host machine did have some libraries updated but cvsup is
statically linked so I don't think that could explain the sudden
failure.

$ cvsup @M3stackdump cvsup.xfree86
