I think the executable available on cvshome.org wasn't compiled with CVS_BADROOT properly undef'd re: <http://ccvs.cvshome.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=72>. CVS_BADROOT is undefined correctly in windows-NT/options.h, so I'm guessing that somehow src/options.h got used instead when the executable was compiled. I don't know if that goes for the older executables or just Tim Buck's 1.11.2 contribution, but if anyone would like to resubmit a new properly compiled executable to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and any patches to the MSVC/C++ project files to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, I'll see about getting both of those where they belong.
