This file "binutils-2.10/gas/testsuite/gas/cris/CVS/Repository" doesn't
contain a full repository path - all the others are /home/cvs/... but
this one contains just the relative path.  Not sure what this means, if
anything...  Some of the Repository files in the linux-2.3 module have
the same sort of thing.  *shrug*  Anyone know?  =)

$ for i in $(find linux-2.3 binutils-2.10 -name Repository); do echo $(cat $i|sed 's/-[0-9.]*//') > $i; done

Why do this?  Why not just tag those two modules on Wednesday when you
make the change to the repository structure?
