They just have to refresh their code by doing a get, not a check out, to get
the buggy code.
But it just basicly comes down to how you work. For instance we here only
work from the one PC each and have an unwritten rule that you only check in
code when it is finished and works.
All of us (5) could all be working on the same project at once doing our own
bits. Say, I check in my stuff when I finish it because the guy to the left
of me is relying on it for whatever he is doing. But at the same time the
person to my right checks in his unfinished buggy code because he is going
to work on it at home. The person on my left then does a get, getting my
changes and the incomplete buggy changes. Suddenly Mr Left's project fails
to compile. Things can get ugly.
So we have some basic rules that we all follow and everything works fine.

It would make sense -if- you wanted to do some work on the code from home
that night, or over the weekend. As for stuffing up others code, they'd
only stop compiling if they checked out your now buggy committed code
(personally I think this is why branches are good).
That being said, due to (*$&(#&$#*( IT staff I can't access out CVS server
remotely yet :(
