I tried this on a machine where I normally use anonymous CVS access and
it didn't work:
elm3a83% CVSROOT=":pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/gcc"
elm3a83% export CVSROOT
elm3a83% cvs login
Logging in to :pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:2401/cvsroot/gcc
CVS password:
elm3a83% cd gcc
elm3a83% contrib/gcc_update
Updating CVS tree
cvs update: authorization failed: server gcc.gnu.org rejected access to /cvs/gcc for user anoncvs
cvs update: used empty password; try "cvs login" with a real password
Adjusting file timestamps
CVS update of full tree failed.
elm3a83%
Are your new instructions missing something, or does gcc_update need
tweaks for this, or did I just blow it somewhere?
