Ok, so I just grabbed cvs-1.11.20, compiled it from source (no binary release) and issued:
/usr/src/cvs-1.11.20/src/cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/sources/emacs co emacs It works. So I'm not able to reproduce your problem. Maybe you can check with the CVS people at [EMAIL PROTECTED], though I guess it'd be better to try 1.11.22 first.
