I followed the instructions in README.chroot to set up cvsweb with
chrooted Apache, and it didn't work.
* Config_heavy.pl needs to be added.
* While Config_git.pl is not strictly necessary, without it you get
a warning (each time cvsweb is invoked).
* The "annotate" function requires a null device. I don't consider
"annotate" to be optional.
ok?
