Are you referring to the patch that Rafael Máximo sent yesterday? I was
going to look at it, but I didn't have time yet. After a quick glance it
looks like it reverts lots of changes S3 made to the driver.

This is probably related to keyword substitutions. There is a node

should add "-kk" to the cvs update command line. This way keywords are
not substituded and can't cause phantom conflicts.
