Excuse me - it would be hard to do in a general way using the current CVSROOT conventions since the -p option is not supported by rsh, only ssh. At least, then specifying a port for rsh would no longer be ignored but would probably cause errors. You can stuff the port number into an ssh wrapper script or into your ~/.ssh/config file for the CVS server if you need to. Trying to stuff it into CVS_RSH will break, though adding support for this shouldn't be too hard using the GNULIB argument parsing module (argv? argz? command-line? something like that), at least on feature, if anyone wanted to write and submit a patch.
