Thanks, we always appreciate contribution which save other people time.
I'll try to use the above.
I've used the same to convert my local working directory of the
xemacsweb module, which is now available via :pserver: only from
/pack/anoncvs, not via /pack/xemacscvs, which is restricted to ssh

Yep, looks good.

It's definitely a question related to XEmacs development which
xemacs-beta is for.
Please send us output of
cvs status etc/OXYMORONS
Perhaps you have a sticky tag or something like that?
