  Are you using one of the public CVS mirrors ? Maybe one of them is in
a bad shape :-\

BTW, with the large number of independant packages/maintainers, I think
  that Gnome would be a perfect testbed for Larry Mc Voy source management
  framework BitKeeper [1]. Larry does your project intent to support
  mirrored codebases, it seems that it's one of the scalability problem
  of CVS (with the lack of hierarchy) ?
