Are you sure you're running the version from the package 1.12.9-14?
Here's my own testing against a local pserver that has -R turned on in
/usr/sbin/cvs-pserver:
tack:/tmp# grep -- -R /usr/sbin/cvs-pserver
exec /usr/bin/cvs -R -b /usr/bin ${cvs_tmp_dir} ${allow_root_opts} pserver
I have the sarge version installed
tack:/tmp/cvs# dpkg -l cvs | grep ^i
ii cvs 1.12.9-13 Concurrent Versions System
tack:/tmp$ cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvs login
Logging in to :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401/home/cvs
CVS password:
cvs [login aborted]: unrecognized auth response from localhost: cvs: WARNING:
Read-only repository access mode selected via `cvs -R'.
i.e. it shows the bug...
Now I unpack the -14 version into /tmp so I can copy the binary out:
tack:/tmp# dpkg -x /home/mirror/debian/pool/main/c/cvs/cvs_1.12.9-14_i386.deb
cvs
tack:/tmp# cp cvs/usr/bin/cvs /usr/bin/
And now things work:
tack:/tmp$ cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvs login
Logging in to :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401/home/cvs
CVS password:
tack:/tmp$
Comparing strings from the two binaries shows that the place that
normally complains about "-R" has now gone, too. Checking on haydn,
the binary installed as /usr/bin/cvs matches the binary in the -14
package.
Hmmm. Found your problem:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ md5sum /org/alioth.debian.org/chroot/usr/bin/cvs
9ac22e38f566a4b4a8c341a539938490 /org/alioth.debian.org/chroot/usr/bin/cvs
which is the binary from -13. Try upgrading that...! :-)

As far as I can tell, this bug is fixed. Believe it or not, I tested
it...
As for the co-maintainer idea, I've already decided to do it and I'll
be setting up an alioth (svn!) project for cvs later this week to make
it easier...
