     It turned out that the easiest way to get a nicely-formatted set
     of patches was to convert the CVS tree into a "git" repository
     and then use git-format-patches to export a set of patches for
     the difference between main and simpler-proc.  I really wish that
     Savannah supported git.  It is easily my favorite version control
     system these days.
     
Presumeably you're aware of the -j option to cvs update ?
