The only problem is that people will not typically see cvsup having problems checking out the two files. I just happened to see the messages flash by on the screen. If they only update infrequently, the messages could always be off of the screen and they won't see them. I timed it last night and a cvsup of 4.0-Stable from cvsup7.freebsd.org to get the two new files on my 3rd system required just over 5 minutes. When I finally endup on a DSL, it should be even better.
