When All Else Fails, Read The Man Pages And Learn How To Run Cvs Like
(Apparently) Everyone Else Does. That "-d" is trying to create or
update (or something) a directory named "-r".
This appears to do what I wish, and next time I'll use "update" in
place of "checkout" (right?):
# cd /usr
# setenv CVSROOT /home/ncvs
# cvs checkout -P -r RELENG_2_2 src
Actually something else was going on (partial cvs?) so before the above
worked I had to remove /usr/src (which was previously updated via
cvsup).
