After the last set of messages on this last week I finally looked up what ampersand modules (are supposed to) do. They do look valuable for common module inclusion, but I'm not sure why this would be used over aliased modules. When are you using ampersand modules, and do you use aliased modules (and when)? The docs I've seen explain how they work, but don't even really attempt to show use examples.

That doesn't do the ampersand correctly if you don't specify the '-d' but seems to be OK if you do. (which is annoying because it worked last time I tried it). It certainly seems to get the CVS/Entries right in any case. It's possible you're the only one using ampersand modules, but it'd be nice if it worked.
