Bo -- Can you describe the steps to repro the previous sticky symbolic 
tag bug you mentioned?  I'm being a little lazy here, but this should 
help you too. :)

Tony,

I'm checking out the testcvs script to see if I could add a test for the 
sticky tag problems so testing could be automated, and get familiar with 
it to add more tests later.  I have python 2.3.2 installed on WinXP SP2 
and 2.3.3 on my FC2 machine, and ran the testcvs script.  It works fine 
on FC2, but required some changes on Win32 to work properly.

The odd line endings in the *info test output didn't match up to 
info_test_output.txt, but almost matched the .w32 version of the file. 
I altered testcvs.py and removed the " from info_test_output.32 (tricky 
with those line endings).

Questions:

-- Should the "" have been removed from info_test_output.w32, or is that 
a bug?  I presume not a bug since you had altered the script to look to 
the other file.

-- Are the "funny" line endings the wrong result (and therefore 
shouldn't be needed in info_test_output.w32)?  I would think it would be 
since it's 0D 0D 0A, not just 0A like it would be if it was a normal 
unix format.

I'll try to put together a 'sticky tag test' and submit it.
