Problem with GCC's wwwdocs auto-checkout?

Problem with GCC's wwwdocs auto-checkout?

[Joseph S. Myers]

I just checked in a change to GCC's wwwdocs/htdocs/branching.html, which 
produced:

Checking in branching.html;
/cvs/gcc/wwwdocs/htdocs/branching.html,v  <--  branching.html
new revision: 1.21; previous revision: 1.20
done
sh: cat: command not found

The unpreprocessed copy of branching.html in /www/gcc/htdocs-preformatted 
was updated, the preprocessed copy in /www/gcc/htdocs wasn't; I needed to 
run the preprocessing script manually.  Is the script being run with a 
funny path?

This was a fall out from the switch to use the new 'rash' script as
the shell.  'rash' sets PATH to just /usr/bin.  cat is in /bin.

I changed the CVSROOT/loginfo file to explicitly use /bin/cat.

I changed rash to set PATH to /bin:/usr/bin.

Either change should fix this problem.  Let us know if it happens
again.  Thanks.
