So /usr/bin/cvs should be just we we need for FreeBSD?  Weren't you
saying we shouldn't have a custom SVN client for FreeBSD use?  Folks
should use the "update -A" when they *need* to, not just out of habit as
a default argument if no -r or -D.

If you have ideas how to future relax the checks and not break semantics,
please let me know.  I've dealt with a use case Kris reported to me, and
the one you reported to me.
