I saw you fixed it. Thanks, Tony :)

In WinCVS, right-click on a file and do "Log Selection". You'll get
something like
<---snip--->
Rcs file : '/Test/myModule1/Hallo.txt,v'
Working file : 'Hallo.txt'
Head revision : 1.13
Branch revision :

Description :
€ +1 -1; commitid: 5383e45feba592c;
*** empty log message ***

See how "Description" is broken?

In TortoioseCVS, right-click on a file and select CVS->History, and you'll
see the broken comment text which is due to the missing semicolon.
Is the trailing semicolon after "commitid" going to stay? It wasn't there a
few builds earlier, and I patched Tortoise and WinCVS to handle that.
