As far as I know nobody has seen anything like this...  I'd have 
expected WinCVS to see a problem like that first as it uses ls for its
repository browsing (and there are far more WinCVS user than pure cvsnt 
users).

Can you repeat it by repeatedly typing 'cvs ls' on the command line, or 
is it script related?
