Look in 'pcl-cvs-parse.el'. I'd say that's where you might be able to
fix this.
Yep, Adrian allready pointed out the line, so I guess we're just
waiting for a patch from Stefan. But maybe he/we wait to isolate the
problem more, cause I don't think this is the root of the problem. I
have seen other non-parseable situations, that eventually went away
after a couple of cvs-status.

I've seen this from cvs.xemacs.org (it happens a lot for me). The CVS
server is a "Martin Buchholz hybrid", but I'm not sure what version it
is based on.
Could you send us (or me) the content of " *cvs-tmp*" buffer (note the
initial space in the buffer name).
Does "it happens a lot for me" means that it also sometimes parses
without problems?
What version do you use locally (as client)?
