I've tried the following:
sudo rm /private/etc/xinetd.d/cvspserver
sudo /Volumes/cvsnt-2.5.01.1910/cvsnt-2.5.01.1910.pkg/Contents/ 
Resources/preinstall
echo $?

The problem is that if you don't have the cvspserver and try to  
install cvsnt it will fail because the last statement is "service  
cvspserver stop" in the preinstall script which will fail as there's  
no cvspserver yet.

We have the very same issue, whenever i open a text file in  
CodeWarrior or BBEdit it get's encoded as binhex. So we had to revert  
to older cvsnt.
