changes to my cvs-supfile, still using RELENG_4 as before. Here's a
snippet of output from running cvsup -g -L2 ~/cvs-supfile :

And so on. It appears that the process of downloading patches completes, cvsup
hits the "Cleaning up" phase, then fails to terminate and does the whole

Any suggestions?
This is a shot in the dark but ...
Do you have a firewall and/or any type of filtering that could be
