problem with rlog

Hello,
I've a machine with:
- rlog version 5.7
- cvsweb 3.0.6  (also tried to use older 2.0.5 with the same behaviour, 
I'm sure the problem is not really on cvsweb)

The repository is mounted shared with another jail where(CVSNT - 2.5.02 
Servalan - Build 2115 - client/server) resides.

Now, on some module problems arise (un-famous message "Failed to spawn 
GNU rlog....")

Here an excerpt from web server error log:

rlog: 
/usr/local/www/cvsweb/cvsrepo/tcltk/TGE/GCode_library/include/tge_file.h,v: 
warning: Unknown phrases like `kopt ...;' are present.
rlog: 
/usr/local/www/cvsweb/cvsrepo/tcltk/TGE/GCode_library/include/tge_file_dos.h,v: 
warning: Unknown phrases like `kopt ...;' are present.
rlog: 
/usr/local/www/cvsweb/cvsrepo/tcltk/TGE/GCode_library/include/tge_file_unix.h,v: 
warning: Unknown phrases like `kopt ...;' are present.
rlog: 
/usr/local/www/cvsweb/cvsrepo/tcltk/TGE/GCode_library/include/tge_gcode_editor.h,v: 
warning: Unknown phrases like `kopt ...;' are present.
rlog: 
/usr/local/www/cvsweb/cvsrepo/tcltk/TGE/GCode_library/include/tge_memory.h,v: 
warning: Unknown phrases like `kopt ...;' are present.
rlog: 
/usr/local/www/cvsweb/cvsrepo/tcltk/TGE/GCode_library/include/tge_path_element.h,v: 
warning: Unknown phrases like `deltatype ...;' are present.
rlog: 
/usr/local/www/cvsweb/cvsrepo/tcltk/TGE/GCode_library/include/tge_path_element.h,v:18: 
unknown character `_'
rlog aborted

As I read here and elsewhere the warning messages are due to specific 
tag added by cvsnt, but the really wrong thing is the last message:

"
/usr/local/www/cvsweb/cvsrepo/tcltk/TGE/GCode_library/include/tge_path_element.h,v:18: 
unknown character `_'
rlog aborted
"

Why rlog aborts on "tge_path_element.h" file but it process other files 
containing the underscore(s)?

I don't know, but I suppose there is a way to get cvsweb working 
right... someone could advice me about how to solve this problems?

Is it possible (or there is a preferred way) to use another command in 
place of rlog? (maybe 'cvsnt log'... but that is not an option in 
cvsweb, so I ask here).


Thanks
Noli Paolo
