Perhaps, but you haven't yet made a compelling case. My own tests
don't show a problem with CVS. If however things are it is as you say,
then no doubt someone else will report it too and perhaps they'll give
enough detail to go further. 

For various reasons, others like you might be unavailable; so we
should give it a while. And since we are early in the next release
cycle, there's plenty of time to address. If it's still a problem by
the time when I mention one of the next release candidates, we can try
to readdress then.
