and this reminded me of a question that's been rattling around in the back
of my brain for some time: Where is the definitive listing of tags that
cvsup can use to pull code sets from the cvs repository?  Stated another
way, how would an idjit (me) know what tag names in cvs correspond to what
versions (I presume all the way back to 2.0.something.

On the machine that I use to track -CURRENT, 'tag=.', so that's a
no-brainer, but what if I wanted to track, say, 2.2?

Inquiring minds want to know.  (Yes, I've R'd TFM).
