 (Although, until today, I did not think I cared, so could
 easily have overlooked warnings.)  I would welcome your
 advice.

I do it routinely.  Just synchronize everybody with ntp
or the clock skew will wreck your build system --which
is not a CVS issue.

It doesn't seem to be nearly as problematic and the consequences if
there is a problem aren't as dire.

 BTW, Cederqvist 1.12.12 pages 97, 156, and 175 talk without
 warnings about checkouts over NFS and so forth, Are the
 earlier warnings in this group outdated?

No, the manual just hasn't ever been updated to incorporate the
warnings.
