That's interesting. Red Hat hasn't seen fit to patch for CAN-2004-0405 
yet. (The latest sources for RHEL3 don't contain the code produced by the 
patch at 
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/patches/SA-04:07/cvs.patch). The 
client.c code in the legacy srpm doesn't contain the fix, either. 
(src/client.c, call_in_directory() function, starting at line 997)
