Assertion fault in CVS 1.11.1p1

[Gerhard Pratl]

Information:
Windows XP client version 1.11.2
Server: Debain Linux, CVS Version  1.11.1p1
Latest currently available version for download from cvshome.org: 2002-12-28:  
CVS 1.11.4 Released!

What happened:
a Java source tree is available in a CVS repository; one class was incorrectly 
checked in as transitionInformation.java and had to be changed to 
TransitionInformation.java (the first letter was not a capital letter).
Here is a copy of the output of the CVS client (paths have been [...]ed):

-------------
>cvs delete transitionInformation.java
cvs server: scheduling `transitionInformation.java' for removal
cvs server: use 'cvs commit' to remove this file permanently

>cvs commit
cvs commit: Examining .
? _TransitionInformation.java
Checking in ParameterInterface.java;
[...]ParameterInterface.java,v  <--  ParameterInterface.java
new revision: 1.3; previous revision: 1.2
done
Removing transitionInformation.java;
[...]transitionInformation.java,v  <--  transitionInformation.java
new revision: delete; previous revision: 1.1
done
-----------
so far, so good; but, after changing the first letter to a 'T', this happened:

-----------
>cvs add TransitionInformation.java
cvs server: re-adding file TransitionInformation.java (in place of dead 
revision 1.2)
cvs server: use 'cvs commit' to add this file permanently
-----------
^^^^^^^ incorrect behavior - the file TransitionInformation.java never existed

and then:
-----------
>cvs commit
cvs commit: Examining .
RCS file: TransitionInformation.java,v
done
cvs [server aborted]: received abort signal
cvs: commit.c:2044: checkaddfile: Assertion `*rcsnode == ((void *)0)' failed.
cvs commit: saving log message in C:\DOKUME~1\[...]\Temp\cvs4

>cvs commit
cvs commit: Examining .
cvs [server aborted]: received abort signal
cvs: hash.c:312: findnode: Assertion `key != ((void *)0)' failed.
cvs commit: saving log message in C:\DOKUME~1\[...]\Temp\cvs5

--------------

That's about it, any help would be highly appreciated - even if it is only the 
information that this bug has been fixed in the latest release

Cheers
Gerhard
