I cannot decide this (FWIW, you might even be a clever robot :-) ), but
I just tried it following the instructions and it worked:
/files/pfeifer% setenv CVSROOT :pserver:anoncvs at subversions dot gnu dot org:/cvsroot/gcc
/files/pfeifer% cvs login
Logging in to :pserver:anoncvs at subversions dot gnu dot org:2401/cvsroot/gcc
CVS password:
/files/pfeifer% cvs -z 9 co gcc
cvs server: Updating gcc
U gcc/.cvsignore
U gcc/COPYING
U gcc/COPYING.LIB
:
What exactly does not work for you? (What is the exact sequence of
commands?)
Or might it have been an intermitten problem on the CVS server?
