Summary: <cvs-pass> and <cvs-checkout> handle passfile incorrectly

Initial Comment:
It seems to us that <cvs-pass> and <cvs-checkout> behave strangely with respect 
to cvspass attribute.

Detailed description:

Say we would like to use passfile="./.cvspass" which means we want NAnt to 
create the file in the same directory from which the nant.exe is started and 
use that pass file to login to CVS server. Here's what turns out: <cvs-pass> 
creates the file in current working directory as expected, while <cvs-checkout> 
seems to look elsewhere (ignores what we explicitly specified in our .build 
script). We later find out it actually looks to the root folder of the drive in 
which we run our build script. e.g. C:\, D:\ or the like.

We are using NAnt 0.85 release with .NET 2.0 and Windows XP SP2.

Any tips, hints, info, fixes will be much appreciated.

After switching not to use sharpcvslib (in our case we now use CVSNT), so
far it works.

You may claim this bug is sharpcvslib's problem, not NAnt's. But I still
believe there is a consistency issue within NAnt itself that needs to be
fixed or at least some info/tips need to be added to the online
documentation.
