I'm seeing some very odd behavior from cvs and I wonder if others are
seeing it too.

No matter what args I pass it, cvs tells me it is an invalid option --
even the --help-options arg.  All other cygwin stuff seems to be
functioning well.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
% cvs -d :pserver:gnus@cvs.gnus.org:/usr/local/cvsroot login
cvs: invalid option --
Usage: cvs [cvs-options] command [command-options-and-arguments]
  where cvs-options are -q, -n, etc.
    (specify --help-options for a list of options)
  where command is add, admin, etc.
    (specify --help-commands for a list of commands
     or --help-synonyms for a list of command synonyms)
  where command-options-and-arguments depend on the specific command
    (specify -H followed by a command name for command-specific help)
  Specify --help to receive this message

The Concurrent Versions System (CVS) is a tool for version control.
For CVS updates and additional information, see
    the CVS home page at http://www.cvshome.org/ or
    Pascal Molli's CVS site at

I just installed CVS via the cygwin setup utility and have a recently
upgraded installation (cygcheck below).
