Well, reports like this have little value unless you include details
such as the version of CVSup you were using, the version of FreeBSD it
was running under, what command line you used to invoke the program,
and the contents of your cvsupfile.  Also, please report CVSup
problems to cvsup-bugs@polstra.com.

This particular problem is always caused by a corrupted RCS file.
However, recent versions of CVSup handle such problems more robustly
than older versions.  If "cvsup -v" doesn't say it's version REL_15_2,
then you're running an old version.
