Yes, it does. If your version doesn't, you're way overdue for an
upgrade :)

The documentation for CVSup 16.0 says "The modes provided for this are
multiplexed mode, passive mode, SOCKS mode, and active mode. All but
multiplexed mode are deprecated. Multiplexed mode can handle any
situation that the other modes can handle. By default the channels are
established in multiplexed mode, if the server is new enough to
support it."

I can't remember how long multiplexed mode has been the default, but
I'm sure it was already the default in 15.4 or whatever was the last
version before 16.0.
