John's worked hard to cut it down, but it's not cvsup that's the hog, it's
the Modula-3 compiler.  I ran out of swap building it before John cut it
down to size, on a machine with 64 megs of memory and 192 megs of swap!

It's still a hog, tho.  Why don't you use the Modula-3 package, and then
compile  the cvsup port, which is more reasonably sized?
