Really? I haven't built the compiler, or make, or almost anything else
in the toolset we use on any of the platforms I build on (FC*, Windows,
Cygwin). So I use binaries built by other peoiple all the time. I bet
you do too. In any case, cvsup would only be a supplement to cvs, not a
replacement, and probably only of interest to developers, not users.
It's not like cvsup is proprietary.
And we support cvsup right now - it's particularly nice with buildfarm.
