I've also CC'ed it directly to you, I hope, it did not strip the 
attachments there.

OK, this can be the reason for the 'dying gasps'.

That's bad, because SmartCVS code needs to support CVSNT and GNU CVS and 
currently I have no clue, how to support GNU CVS >= 1.12.10. Maybe you 
rethink about the relative paths or send them only, when the client 
tells that it supports that?
