Doing a "cvs update" with 1.11.15 on server and client, this problem
persists.

Anyway, I found out something very weird:

I just set up ssh-agent, so I don't have to input my passphrase over and
over again. If I use that one, the problem does not occur, even if I do
*not* ssh-add the key!

Do you want to see an example?

[... no ssh-agent is running ...]

$ cvs co vice
$ cd vice
$ cvs update
[... error occurs...]
$ cd ..
$ cvs release -d vice
[... error occurs ...]

$ ssh-agent > /tmp/sshagent.test

$ cvs co vice
$ cd vice
$ cvs update
[... error occurs...]
$ cd ..
$ cvs release -d vice
[... error occurs ...]


$ . /tmp/sshagent.test

$ cvs co vice
$ cd vice
$ cvs update
[NO error!]
$ cd ..
$ cvs release -d vice
[NO error!]


Now, that's weird, isn't it?

Spiro.
