The use of CVS 1.12 features in DragonFly CVS makes it hard to use the
repository on 1.11 servers. For example I'm unable to use
anoncvs at xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/home/dcvs:
Is that a stock 1.11 or a FreeBSD modified one?
AFAICS it is a stock 1.11 which may be vulnerable to 
http://security.e-matters.de/advisories/092004.html, but you'll have ask 
Christian for that.

Anyway, when the repository uses no special features it should run on 
stock and FreeBSD repository servers, or am I wrong here?
