A stupid procedural question re CVS



If I find a bug in the CVS code, should I:
  1) fix the bug and submit diffs (but to whom?) or
  2) fix the bug and commit (but that requires write access), or
  3) fetch the current version and hope it's fixed there?

If I update to the current version, should I have to update every
gnome package that I'm working on?  I tried "cvs -z9 update -d" per
http://www.gnome.org/software/anoncvs.shtml, but that tried to update
everything.  I guess I should have left the -d off.  Maybe that web
page ought to be changed?

Specifically, I found some speling erors in raster's documentation for
imlib (rather like shooting fish in a barrel, that), and want to
submit fixes.
