On second thought, CVS should reproduce checkin dates. I suspect that the
directory was checked in all at once (or using "cvs commit *"), which
does happen in alphabetical order, so devices.shilka was timestamped later
than devices.cc. Again, this results in build errors if $CVSREAD is set.
Can someone with access "touch devices.shilka,v" in the repository,
please? Thanks,
Igor
