There were actually two things I needed to do.  Copy the `options' file
from FreeBSD's CVSROOT and add a line saying "options" to the 
`checkoutlist' file so the options file is kept checked out in CVSROOT.

I needed to "cvs co" the src tree again since "cvs update" thought
everything was already up to date.

Thanks John & Rod.
