Subject: cvsimport fails with cvsps core dump

Hi,

While trying to cvsimport pfsense [1] source [2], cvsps coredumps and
cvsimport aborts with the following error.

root@beastie:# git cvsimport -v -d /usr/local/pfSense/tmp/cvsroot -C
pfSense/ pfSense
Running cvsps...

root@beastie:# ls pfSense/
.git            cvsps.core

I am trying this in FreeBSD 6.1 with cvsps compiled from master branch
of git repository at http://ydirson.free.fr/soft/git/cvsps.git

To replicate this error get the pfSense cvsroot tarball from [2] and
run the command
$ git cvsimport -v -d /<path>/cvsroot -C pfSense/ pfSense

While this is not a git bug as such, I have written to the cvsps
author about this about one week back with no replies and this seems
to be the only place interested in cvsps.

Thanks and regards,

raj
