does this belong in freebsd-bugs?

noticed yesterday during my cvs woes that the cvsupit link listed in the
handbook, section A.6.2
(ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/development/CVSup/cvsupit.tgz)

will overwrite your cvsup binary and man page with its own version, which is
16.0 release, and immediately causes a protocol negotiation failure the next
time you attempt to cvsup against a 16.1e server.

would suggest removing these two binaries and just having cvsupit error if
it can't find cvsup installed.
