I had already coded something like this but I changed my mind. The problem is
that the new version of
CVS doesn't really know whether the old entry in the .cvspass file applied to a
version of CVS compiled
with a different default port or a port specified with CVS_CLIENT_PORT.
Without this hack they'll get an error message asking them to log in again.
With it they'll get
"connection refused" or "access denied" messages which might take longer to
diagnose.
