When creating repositories with `cvs init' there are lots of backup
files left with names like '.#modules'. Is this a bug or a feature?
I consider this bug (if that's really "backup files", then they should
be more clearly named as such). I think that either this patch should
be applied:
Index: mkmodules.c

}
or those files should be named as "modules.bak".
