cvs co -r ghc-4-06-branch
will give you the 4.06 tree.
cvs diff -r ghc-4-06-branch
will give you the diffs between your current tree and ghc 4.06.
`ghc-4-06-branch' includes any patches to the released GHC-4.06 since the initial
release (eg, ghc-4-04-branch is GHC 4.04 pl1); `ghc-4-06' is the initially-released
GHC 4.06. I believe in this case they're the same.
