I asked an rCVS user (completely unbiased; he happens to be my brother)
and he said:

I hope that we are talking about the same thing here. In any case, investigation
of the CVS client-server mode would seem called for. My informant also said (in
a later message):

Apparently FNAL has a hack to fix this problem but it will be fixed properly in
cvs 1.8.
