: yes, this is my vote too.

Before we go and check in binary files uuencoded, the new CVS+RCS
groks binary files w/o the needed UUBLOAT.  My first choice would be
to not have them in the tree at all.  My second is to just have the
binaries, and my third would be to have them uuencoded.

And if you stored the raw libraries in the cvs tree, then you could do
exactly as Peter and Poul suggest...
