cvsupped today,

mkmodules.c:
     $FreeBSD: src/contrib/cvs/src/mkmodules.c,v 1.9.2.2 2001/10/28 21:32:08 peter Exp $

	
>Description:

cvs does not rebuild CVSROOT/options like it does for every other main
configuration file.
this is normally done in mkmodules.c:mkmodules(). as 'options' is not
included in filelist[], make doesn't know about the existance of this
file.
furthermore, the file 'options' is not documented.

	
>How-To-Repeat:
cvs co CVSROOT
echo 'tag=myId=Id' > options    # strange format?
cvs add options
cvs commit
ls $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/options*

	
>Fix:
none yet. it's too late for good programming work. this needs to be
cross checked with the upstream sources (they might have included a
'tag' option for 'config'). nontheless this needs to be fixed.
if nobody provides a patch within reasonable time, set PR to feedback
and i'll write one.
