No, these accidents are happening where people are copying the cvs scripts 
from our ncvs tree to their own repository and ignoring this warning:
#
# BEWARE:  If you are "borrowing" this code for use on another cvs
# repository, please make sure you change all references to '@FreeBSD.org'
# in the log_accum script.  Otherwise your commit messages will be sent
# to 'cvs-committers@freebsd.org' etc.  This could be highly embarresing. :-)
#
case "`hostname | tr A-Z a-z`" in
freefall.freebsd.org)
        :
        ;;
*)
        echo "Please commit on freefall...."
        exit 1
esac

We do not install log_accum.pl or friends *anywhere*, it's not even in the 
"src" tree.
