I reported this everal weeks ago but there was never a satisfactory
resolution to the problem.

One poster (scf@) reported that using a 32-bit binary solves the problem.

In my experience running cvsup against a remote server (to keep a local
CVS tree up to date) works just fine.

Are you also running cvsupd and attaching to it?

I've found that not starting cvsupd in /etc/rc.conf and instead starting
it without -C in a shell script just before invoking cvsup works, so
I use something like this:

/usr/local/sbin/cvsupd&
sleep 1
/usr/local/bin/cvsup supfile

and have localhost in supfile.

Otherwise I suggest using csup, which does not exhibit any bugs.
