Probably no, see below.

You need to use CVS:

cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvspublic login
     (password is 'anoncvs')
cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvspublic co apr-util

That is why (among other things) it is beta.

If you use beta, you can use CVS - in fact the difference is quite small.
In case of apr-util you can relax. All apr-utils checkouts so far have been
bug-free, and as far as i know - CVS is the only way to get apr-utils. If
you can get your hands on some apr-utils tarball - it will probably be out
of date, as apr-utils are changing fast...
