You want to do

   'make check'

or 
   cd src
   ./sanity.sh `pwd`/cvs                        # local check
   ./sanity.sh -r `pwd`/cvs                     # remote check

That is, you need a full pathname tot he cvs executable not a relative
pathname.

./sanity.sh --help

The shell script itself is fairly well commented...

        Good luck,
