Due to the legal 'situation' with the trademark owner, all files with
"tetris" in the name have been rather hastily removed from the cvs tree.

Yes, we are well aware of the problems that this will cause..  It'll stop 
the various RELENG_*_RELEASE builds from compiling, and will cause any 
current checked out src or ports trees to abort on a 'cvs update'.

You will see this sort of thing:

[11:23am]~src/games-163> cvs -q update -d -P
cvs [update aborted]: cannot open directory /home/ncvs/src/games/tetris: No such file or directory
[11:23am]~src/games-164> 

The solution is to rm -rf the src/games/tetris and ports/games/xtetris 
directories, cvs will then procede.

Oh, a word of warning.  If anybody accidently restores the RCS ,v files on
their private machines after cvsup has run and deleted them, cvsup will not
delete them a second time...  Caution is advised.

Cheers,
-Peter
