It was the sample script you provided to demonstrate the problem which
showed the new issue: it does a "cvsps -x" first, then runs
git-cvsimport, which runs "cvsps -u".  That one does fails.  I'm
pretty sure the cache does not exist beforehand, since your script
creates the repo in a temporary directory.

BTW, I'll see about adding a testsuite to cvsps, based on the
framework used by git.  All these scriptlets used to exhibit the
various problems have to be kept somewhere.

I do think there is a bug somewhere :)

OK, thanks for the clarification.
