I found the section in question, it is:
-- snip --
commit refs/heads/TAG.FIXUP
mark :1000007128
committer cvs2svn <cvs2svn> 1002043747 +0000
data 88
This commit was manufactured by cvs2svn to create tag
'T_BU_Problem_9xxx_Merge_3-21-2000'.
merge :1000007126
M 100755 :180810 mfcdev/Domedit/DlgAddAlias.h
-- snap --

By my count, 88 is the ending single quote character, leaving the '.' to
be interpreted as a command.

Looks like I should go post this on the cvs2svn list.....


Thanks!
