I'm running these tests on an i386 Linux machine running Debian sarge,
using binaries I've configured and compiled directly from the standard
upstream tarballs for 1.12.9 and 1.12.13. I am in fact the Debian
maintainer for cvs, which is why I started digging into this. My
original tests were using cvs 1.12.13 built with the small number of
patches that we apply for the Debian build, but I've since reproduced
my issue using completely vanilla builds with no patches applied.

All my tests have been against another i386 Debian machine running
sarge and the standard Debian package of cvs, version 1.12.9. I'm
using ssh as a transport.

OK, I'll try that now. <pause> Same problem:
