cvsnt (server) crashes on all operations after portupgrade

That I haven't messed with:

cvspserver	stream	tcp	nowait	root	/usr/local/bin/cvsnt	cvsnt authserver

Nope, that's exactly how I remembered it.

I tried running "sudo cvsnt authserver" from a shell after disabling
inetd, but it never appeared to listen to the port, it took it's input
from stdin, detected an absence of a vlid cvs client when I hit enter,
and exited normally.

All this is hopefully moot.  Largely due to cvsnt's move towards more
commercial interference (default win clients now have a yahoo-like tag
in each commit string, etc.), and a total lack of any response on the
cvsnt mailing list, if I can get cvs2svn to dump a git fast-import
file (like it supposedly can), I'm gonna have my source trees on
bazaar by monday (famous last words).

Thanks,
