After usr.sbin, it's basicly done downloading. "cvs" runs a couple
more passes to delete empty directories and update status on the
server (because "anoncvs" is still "cvs"). Just run the job in the
background, and be patient.

It should build without coda. You're running current? Something could
have broken recently. I suggest you start with only minor mods to one
of the examples, like "HOMEWORLD", so that it'll be easy for others to
reproduce, and if it still doesn't work, post the detailed error to
current-users.
