I set the script to use my sourceforge login and I uploaded one of my
DSA keys to the root account (since they're for outbound use) and the
checkout worked.  Unfortunately, my remote-operation-fu is a little week
so I don't know how to have it _not_ prompt for the password for the key.

Also, it appears that we could, in principle, have phinch grab the cvs
repository contents via rsync as a fallback.

I'm pointing all this out because I don't really have enough time to do
much. ;-)
