Andy -
As a suggestion to tackling this problem from a different direction,
would you please
run the check_cvs script over your repository. The script should be
found in the scripts
directory of the cvs distribution. I'm interested in the output.

Okay. Now to try to figure out why the CVS/Entries file is getting
corrupted... the core dump is happening in the fprintf() that creates an
entry in that file...

If you are at version 2.4.20-28.7 of the kernel and glibc-2.2.4-33, then
I doubt that there is an mmap bug around any longer. If you are not at
that level, you may wish to look into getting some updates from
ftp://updates.redhat.com/7.1/en/os/ while they are still available.

Well, a user value having a newline is not auspicious nor is having a
corrupt value for version and timestamp.

Trying to figure out how the values became corrupt is likely to be
harder.
