The documentation on using CVSup with SOCKS is badly out of date, and
m3socks is long overdue for its final journey to software heaven.
With modern versions of CVSup you can use standard SOCKS if you do it
right.
Build CVSup using the "net/cvsup-devel" or "net/cvsup" port. Don't
use the package, because these packages are statically linked. You
must build the port yourself in order for it to be dynamically linked
and usable with SOCKS. Note: To save a huge download, you might wish
to install the "lang/pm3-{base,net,gui,forms}" _packages_ before you
build CVSup.
Install SOCKS5 in whatever way works for you. Run cvsup using
runsocks in the usual way, but add the magic argument "@M3novm" to the
cvsup command line -- anywhere on the command line.
