PCL-CVS: Wrong file path for diff.

[Kai Großjohann]

In GNU Emacs 21.3.1 (i386-msvc-nt5.0.2195)
 of 2003-03-28 on buffy
configured using `configure --with-msvc (12.00)'
Important settings:
  value of $LC_ALL: nil
  value of $LC_COLLATE: nil
  value of $LC_CTYPE: nil
  value of $LC_MESSAGES: nil
  value of $LC_MONETARY: nil
  value of $LC_NUMERIC: nil
  value of $LC_TIME: nil
  value of $LANG: DEU
  locale-coding-system: iso-latin-1
  default-enable-multibyte-characters: t

I do M-x cvs-update RET.  This gives me a *cvs* buffer which shows the file
conf/Blueline.ini as "modified', say.  Now I do "l" on that line.  I switch
to the *cvs-info* buffer, mark two of the revisions for diffing, then hit "="
to perform the diff.

The *cvs-diff* buffer then contains the following error message:

cvs.exe [diff aborted]: cannot find ../../conf/Blueline.ini: No such file or
directory

I get a similar message for all files.  For a file foo/bar/frumple/blargl, I
will get a message saying that ../../foo/bar/frumple/blargl couldn't be
found.  All of the messages start with "../../".

For files in the top level of the hierarchy, I get a different message,
though:

cvs.exe diff: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory
cvs.exe [diff aborted]: no repository

I'm using NT Emacs 21.3 on a W2k system.  The CVS is the w32 port from
cvshome.org, I believe.  I also have MingW and MSYS 1.0 installed, but I believe
those are not used in this scenario.

Thanks,
Kai
