Yes they are. CVS checkouts are one level (more or less) earlier in the build
process than the usual distribution tarballs.
To build a cvs checkout (for ALSA, other packages have different patterns),
use:
./cvscompile <configure options>
This makes the Makefile.in (etc), runs configure and make, then you make
install as usual.
You need to have autoconf, automake and libtool installed on your system for
the first stage to work.
Hope this helps,
James
