Guys,

We have been running cvsup for quite some time now to maintain the -current
and -stable source trees on our ftp site.  Just recently we have been
getting the following error message part way through the update:

***
*** runtime error:
***    ASSERT failed
***    file "../src/RCSDelta.m3", line 182
***

abort - core dumped

This happens with cvsup-14.1.1 and cvsup-15.0

any ideas what would cause this ?

thanks,

Carey Nairn
