CVS/Root contains the first part of the path. Just use the one found at the 
top of the CVS checkout. Using CVS may be insane, but mixing different repos 
in the same checkout is absolute madness.

Then drop /Attic/ if present and the ,v at the end of the file name. Not 
rocket science I'd say.

We do although I rarely commit big patches so cvsexportcommit usually does 
it's job in seconds for me. I also use the -u option and don't do any work in 
the CVS checkout so performing status if just overhead for me. We might drop 
it completely with a switch.

I suggest Junio wait a few days in case a real fix materializes.
