It does look like something strange is going on.  One of the mirror
site managers noticed this in consecutive update logs:

  grep src/contrib/gdb/libiberty/xstrerror.c,v cvsup.log*
  gives this:

	cvsup.log: Delete src/contrib/gdb/libiberty/xstrerror.c,v
	cvsup.log.0: Create src/contrib/gdb/libiberty/xstrerror.c,v
	cvsup.log.1: Delete src/contrib/gdb/libiberty/xstrerror.c,v
	cvsup.log.2: Create src/contrib/gdb/libiberty/xstrerror.c,v
	cvsup.log.3: Delete src/contrib/gdb/libiberty/xstrerror.c,v
	cvsup.log.4: Create src/contrib/gdb/libiberty/xstrerror.c,v
	cvsup.log.5: Delete src/contrib/gdb/libiberty/xstrerror.c,v
	cvsup.log.6: Create src/contrib/gdb/libiberty/xstrerror.c,v
	cvsup.log.7: Delete src/contrib/gdb/libiberty/xstrerror.c,v

I will check into it right away.
