[cvsnt] Problem with cvs log -r

The CVSNT server implements the double-colon (::) tag and revision ranges
differently from other CVS servers.

According to the Cederqvist manual:

cvs log -rREL0::REL1

should return all log entries between REL0 and REL1, not including REL0, but
-including- REL1. The CVSNT server includes neither REL0 nor REL1 with this
command -- only the stuff in between.

This makes it extremely difficult to create meaningful change logs between
tagged revisions of files.

Is there any plan to fix this?
