	No it shouldn't.  It says to run the command "-l" on "host"
	with arguements "user cvs server"

	This isn't Linux with its broken getopt() implementation.

	Note: the other half of the #ifdef/#else/#endif gets the
	arguement list correct.

	I've sent a complaint to cvs-bugs@gnu.org against
	client.c:1.318.4.19 which is the HEAD of the cvs1-11-x-branch.
