Hello, Larry!

The latest patch you applied to CVS has the following description in the
ChangeLog:

This completes the memory leak shoot-out -- the Purify'ed version
of CVS now runs the entire test suite, both local and remote (except
for remote crerepos, which causes Purify to choke) with *no* memory
leaks.

Have you seen my patch to sanity.sh that makes it possible to run it in
the remote mode without any kind of remote shell? The patch was sent to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] on June 21th on the subject "Patch - no more system rsh in
sanity.sh"

It is the "crerepos" test that uses rsh, and with my patch it will use a
"trivial remote shell" created on-the-fly. Not sure if it is directly
relevant to your tests, but I think it is.

Maybe we need three modes for sanity.sh - local, fork and remote shell. In
the later case it will be the users responsibility to pick a working
remote shell by setting CVS_RSH. I'm open to suggestions.

Maybe I should send my patches to another list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]?) or
make them more visible (how?)

Regards,
Pavel Roskin
