There's nothing we can do about that, that's the only way to tell
CVS 1.12 that 'DragonFly' belongs in the CVS header. We left in the
1.11 commands (the BSD hacks) too, so CVS 1.11 *WILL* work with
a CVS 1.12 repository locally. It looks like judging from your
report it does not work in pserver mode, but it will work locally.
It will complain:
cvs update: /cvs/CVSROOT/config: unrecognized keyword 'LocalKeyword'
But then it will continue.
Fine with me, but anoncvs should be removed from http://grappa.unix-
ag.uni-kl.de/ and http://www.dragonflybsd.org/main/download.cgi then, at
least until someone manages to find find a workaround.
