That's just wierd.

The line you're failing on is just:

		if(CVS_CHDIR(newroot->directory)<0)
			error(1,errno,"Repository directory %s does not 
exist",newroot->directory);


ie. It changes directory to the current repository, and if it can't just 
dies (because nothing else is going to work either unless it can do that).

Permission denied is just that...  the user doesn't have access. 
Precisely why you're not seeing the failure in the audit logs I have no 
idea.
