It's a fixed problem on the cvs server that tickles an fixed bug in
cvsup, and nothing.

See <URL: http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=27495 > for lots
of information. The quick fix is to delete the jakarta-tomcat port and
the file "/usr/cvs/ports-all/checkouts.cvs:.", then cvsupping
again. Not quite so quick is to delete the "jakarta-tomcat" lines from
that file before cvsuping.

The best fix is probably to install a later version of the cvsup - not
cvsup-bin - package and use that. Installing the port will install a
modula compiler and runtime, so you probably want to use the package.
I fixed the problem before the fixed version of cvsup was available,
so can't vouch for it personally.
