The problem is that this will *only* retrieve the files that were
tageed with the "pre-cni-catch-change" tag ... which is *not* everything
in libgcj (it only seems to cover the files in the "libjava"
subdirectory).

And clearly you don't want to get the old version of those files and
the latest version of everything else in the tree.

What I suggest doing is checking it out by date. From what I can tell
the closest version to the "pre-cni-catch-change" can be checked out by
doing:

cvs -z9 -d:pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.cygnus.com:/cvs/java \
   co -D "Mar 2, 2000 00:00:00" libgcj

This is the version of libgcj that I have been using along with 
gcj 2.95.2 and Bryce's patches.
