When using a local repository that is only written to by CVSup - which
I assume doesn't do the cvs locking protocol - this option might be a
speedup since cvs will not create lock files.
such as within an anoncvs server, or from a CDROM repository.
Cyclic (the cvs maintainers) do not like this approach and have an
alternative read-only system, but that requires a read/write repository to
work (which rules out CDROM).

controls the RCSINCEXC encironment variable for our rcs version, and
also convert the rest of the checkout enhancements from rcs into cvs's
fast checkout code. (yes, cvs doesn't call 'co' anymore)
We now have fine grained individual keyword expansion control and can
set the keyword to anything the user wants.
Also, a new keyword, $CVSHeader$ comes in from rcs, it's like $Header$
except that it shows the pathname relative to the cvsroot. eg:
$FreeBSD: src/bin/ls/ls.c,v 1.10.2.14 1997/05/17 13:15:45 peter Exp $
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The idea for this comes from $XFree86$ which expands like $CVSHeader$.
The "local id" string can be set to expand like Id, Header or CVSHeader.
(Matching support for this is apparently happening in cvsup right now)
This is not complete yet in that it doesn't drive our version of RCS
completely, but it does work fine when you do the appropriate magic.

"-pg" and gprof(1) instead. FreeBSD does not support plain "-p" or
prof(1).
Plain "-p" is still allowed when just compiling. In the compile
phase, "-p" is identical "-pg". It is used by <bsd.lib.mk> for
building profiled object files.
Change "Found end of tape. Load next tape ..." messages to say
"volume" instead of tape. Running cpio off of /dev/fd0 and having
it say "give me the next tape" is kind of ludicrous.. :-)
and opened the archive file. This allows "cpio -o -O output_file"
to create the output file with the callers proper umask.

stops regular files with unrepresentable rdevs from being rejected
and makes the output independent of unpreservable metadata.
Don't output a file if the major, minor or totality of its rdev would be
truncated. Print a message about the skipped files to stderr but don't
report the error in the exit status. cpio's abysmal error handling doesn't
allow continuing after an error, and the rdev checks had to be misplaced
to avoid the problem of returning an error code from routines that return
void.
Minor numbers are limited to 21 bits in pax's ustar format and to 18
bits in archives created by gnu tar (gnu tar wastes 3 bits for padding).
pax's and cpio's ustar format is incompatible with gnu tar's ustar
format for other reasons (see cpio/README).
