To bring the tree clean, I issued "git commit -a -m 'cvs sync'", and
"git-whatchanged -p" shows the most recent commit with the diff actually
*backed out* the most recent change in CVS, and the next change down was
actually the good one.  Weird.  Do I need to start all over again?

Nope.  I'm on "master", and it should be writing "master".
