Thanks, it should be working now. I don't know why it wasn't working 
earlier. The CVS server seems to have had no record of 
manual/autoconf-2.72/html_node/index.html.

I fixed it by making a trivial whitespace change to the file, which you 
can see here:

https://web.cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/autoconf/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.72/html_node/index.html?r1=1.1&r2=1.2

and doing a "cvs commit" to kick the server. The file now shows up as 
having two revisions 1.1 and 1.2, whereas before the entire file was 
missing.
