You should probably try building a debug version of cvs and obtain a
crash dump of the server:

	# cd /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/cvs
	# make cleandir
	# make cleandir
	# env CFLAGS='-O -ggdb' make obj all install

Then, start a CVS server as a non-root user (if it starts as root, it
will not dump a core file when it crashes) and try again.  Once you
have a cvs.core file mail me and I'll help you use gdb to find out why
it crashes.

Knowing what version of FreeBSD and CVS you have may help a bit too.
