This may have something to do with the fact that the Windows CVS client 
does some linefeed conversions as you checkout or commit a file. All 
text files in the CVS server are stored in Unix format, and the Windows 
CVS client takes care of linefeed conversions for Windows users. If you 
commit files with funky linefeeds from Linux then that could lead to the 
kind of problems you see here. (I've seen that problem before, I'm just 
not sure what had happened exactly.)
