this is what the log says....
# Executing CVS command "cvs 
-d:ssh:vawjr at boost.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/boost -z9 update -dPA 
-r RC_1_34_0"

when I get the error it generally shows something like....checksum 
failed.....reloading

but the script will try the cvs command up to 5 times it if gets a 
non RESULT_OK from cvs, and it repeats the checksum error message 
each time.  have an copy of the log, but cvsnt begins failing to 
update my local repository when the repository file gets too big. but 
I'll scan and see if I can find one
