This is important.. Move the file out of the way but keep a copy in case.
Let cvsup grab a new copy. If you've had local filesystem corruption,
the timestamps and size flags will be an exact match with the server so
it'll skip the file and no checksums will be exchanged (I think you can
force this, but it'll slow you down a lot for the update).
If you get a new corrupted copy, we're in trouble. :-]
Where are you getting the files from? A mirror might be out of sync..
(Hmm, the master on freefall seems OK...)
Cheers,
-Peter
