Yay! I found a moment (just a small one), so I think I've fixed it now.

I had the pre-commit script that runs msgfmt pass it's parent PID down
to the pre-commit script it spawns that creates a special file
(identified by the parent 'CVS' process id) used by the subsequent
post-commit script that the CVS process runs to identify the special
file. That should have got rid of the annoying warning whenever an
altered po file is commit, and hopefully should see the post-commit
script sending mails to cvs-po-commits-list again.
