[RFC] src/Makefile.in skip CVS directories in archive

Hello,

The attached patch changes the rules for:

	do-tar-bz2:
and	do-md5sum:

so that CVS directories are explicitly skipped when creating the
.tar.bz2 and md5.sum files.
I can see two concerns with the change:

	o	The archive process shouldn't assume
		CVS directories and shouldn't remove them.

	o	For the tar-bz2, it makes use of GNU tar's
		-T flag making the release process somewhat
		platform dependant.

Thoughts?

	Andrew
