In that case, it could be that for some reason, an earlier CVS checkout misses the execute permission of some script, and then, IIRC, cvs update doesn't (re-)add the execute flag on it. I.e. remove the directory and re-get it (cvs -q update -Pd -rOPENBSD_4_[01] on the parent dir) could perhaps fix that. If you can flag the exact problem, it can also be enough to remove the specific file (script) and cvs ... update ... on the directory containing the file, or even specifying the file itself. Kind regards, Hannah.
