[cvsnt] Incorrect variable expansion in administrative files

Using this postcommand file (tested on Windows XP):

ALL cmd /c echo ${CVSROOT}12345

after executing any command the output is:

/slrepo2345

Expected output:

/slrepo12345

Looks like variable expansion "eats" the first character from the  
remaining text. The same happens with any other variable ${USER},  
${REAL_CVSROOT}, etc.
