Hi list,

Please Cc: me when replying.

I've upgraded my source tree to the latest netbsd-4.

Hey, what's happening here?  Therefore I decided to check cvsweb to see
whether it was only a matter of tag or not.  Astonishingly albeit the
file contains the change of revision 1.7 by mycroft, the tag is expanded
to rev 1.6.


While I was here, I saw a similar problem in cvsweb.  When looking at
the revision 1.7 of the file, the tag is correct:
http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/etc/rc.d/bootparams?rev=1.7

But annotating it exhibits the same problem as described above:
http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/etc/rc.d/bootparams?annotate=1.7


My guess is that cvsweb uses cvs(1) for annotation while it parses the
RCS file directly when showing a revision.  So, is there a bug in cvs?
