Yes: look for a different approach, or at least backup your local
repository frequently.  There are known bugs in CVSup which can cause
it to throw away your local branch under certain circumstances.  I
won't have time to fix those issues any time soon.  So my advice is,
don't use the CVS_LOCAL_BRANCH_NUM feature.
