This is great, though it's rather brittle -- I sometimes have to run
it a few times to get through an entire update -- switching servers
each time so as not to hit the access limits.  I see from the docs
that the developer is aware of these issues.  Much better than
nothing.  :-)  Are you using this, or cvs, or what?
