Wouldn't it be easier to just run
        chroot /some/chroot/root cvs ....
out of [x]inetd?  Doing this also avoids the concern about "did I do the
chroot soon enough" which could happen if/when other special arg
processing is done.

I know you can say the same thing about my getpid/putenv patch.  I'd
consider that slightly different since that also works for non-pserver. 
But I do think it's an issue for us to consider:  when to patch main()
and when to write wrappers?
