Not if you did both imports in one day.  I was trying to build up
history in a local CVS tree and discovered that the "foo:yesterday"
trick doesn't work if the previous rev that the conflicts are with was
imported today.  Thus, the proper thing here is sometimes to do

	cvs co -jv2_3 -jv2_4 contrib_patch

(e.g. use the release tags instead of the branch tag and the
:yesterday kludge).

(Or, the other way to solve this is don't import two things on
the same day...)
