After working with the gnu.org admins we've gotten the sync
scripts working. If we have any more problems I know exactly
who to contact and how to work it out in detail. In the meantime
the entire system is being migrated from cvs to git (yay!).
Therefore there will be no migration back to sourceware.org.
