Can (both of) you try the source distribution ?

I was having a problem on cvsup2.uk.FreeBSD.org where clients kept 
getting disconnected.  The problem went away (it seems) after I 
installed the source port (install ports/net/cvsup before 
cvsup-mirror).

I'm an advocate of the ``source route'', so I felt it would be 
inappropriate if I complained that the ``source route'' was broken 
without backup :*)
