I don't want to switch to Autoconf-2.49x completely before Autoconf-2.50
is released. As far as I know, Autoconf-2.13 would not handle it properly,
but I haven't tried hard.

It's a known problem in CVS. It's very hard to fix because CVS wasn't
initially client-server, and the problem is deeply in the design of CVS.
A better CVS replacement, called "Subversion" is developed at
http://subversion.tigris.org/index.html
You may need to find a bigger hard drive or use an out-of-tree build on
another partition:
mkdir /tmp/mc
cd /tmp/mc
/usr/local/src/mc/configure
make
Sorry that I cannot give you a satisfactory answer to any of your
questions. I know all your problems :-(
