does git need more than cvsps to work (I assumed my package manager
had installed all needed deps)? I installed cvs after you pointed that
out...

git cvsimport -a -v -d
:pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.gentoo.org/var/cvsroot/ gentoo-x86 -C
portage
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/portdev/cvs/portage/.git/
Running cvsps...
parse error on third token
WARNING: malformed CVS version str: Server: (unknown)
WARNING: Your CVS client version:
[Client: Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.12.12 (client)]

are too old to properly support the rlog command.
This command was introduced in 1.11.1.  Cvsps
will use log instead, but PatchSet numbering
may become unstable due to pruned empty
directories.
