Thanks; have you tested these instructions, by the way (I haven't)?

You mean whether I tested that replacing "git-cvsserver" by "git cvsserver" in
CVS_SERVER does work?  Yes, I did with cvs 1.12.12 on Linux.  I had concerns
myself because of the space, especially in the syntax where CVS_SERVER is
inlined into the CVSROOT but everything worked without any issues as long as
you quoted the strings correctly.

Thanks.  I did that myself after I sent the message to you, as I wanted to
queue this documentation update of yours for 'maint' track for 1.6.0.1.
