Is it possible under 2.2 to NFS-share a source tree?
I found a discussion of this 18 months ago where Jordan said that every
host needs it's own /usr/src.  I'm hoping this has changed, because
I'd really like to maintain only one tree with cvsup.

I did try to Readonly mount the existing 2.2 tree via NFS, but make
world died about halfway through with a write error.

Thanks,
