Yeah, I can understand this.  I don't like it either.  I already have
two people with this kind of privilege and I was feeling uncomfortable
about that.  I don't even like giving global cvs access.

FWIW, this should only be temporary.  I'll try to remember to revoke
these special privileges when this requirement is gone.

The alternative was to get DJ, Corinna, or me involved every time this
guy uploads his new-improved installer, so I think that this is the
lesser of two evils.
