Well, I turned on debugging in the config file to see if I could get
any info there.  What it *does* provide though, is an indication that
the chroot is working:

Oct 17 14:30:41 gentoo cvsd[11011]: debug: chroot(/var/lib/cvs) done

Also, if I put the full path (/var/lib/cvs/root) in the CVSROOT
variable, it errors that there is no such directory.  So I believe the
chroot'ing is happening correctly, I just don't understand why I'm
being denied permission through SSH.
