This is kind-of a feature.  I actually suggested doing things this way
early on because it means you can save (as source) a patch and patch
your sources with it.   If the '<' became '&lt' that wouldn't be
possible.  Perhaps the CVS server obsoletes this, but perhaps not;
it's sometimes nice to be able to try out someone's patch, or assist
them with it, before it's ready to be checked in.  Ideally, of course,
we'd have both...
