Should anyone find it useful, I have repaired CVS where it insisted in
creating files (on import and add/commit, seemingly) with empty
permissions.

The expression in src/import.c:1444,1448

    mode = (sb.st_mode |
            (sb.st_mode & S_IRWXU) >> 3 |
            (sb.st_mode & S_IRWXU) >> 6) &
           ~cvsumask &
           ~(S_IWRITE | S_IWGRP | S_IWOTH);

must lose the ~ in front of cvsumask.  How it got there and why no one
has fixed it is a bit of a mystery to me.

I haven't yet made sure that my copy of the sources is faithful to the
release - it's been a long time since I last looked into this - but if
anyone wants me to dump the sources as they stand in their direction,
just drop me a line, preferably here on 9fans or on my google mail
account: lucio.dere is the account.
