Problem with WinCVS 2.0.2.4 and pserver

I'm having the following problem:

I have a repository that I'm trying to log in to via pserver.  The
command string that WinCVS sends is as follows (changing names to
protect the guilty):

cvs -d
:pserver;username=thisisme;hostname=annoying.physics.domain.edu:/home/directorypath
login 

Logging in to
:pserver:[email protected]:2401:/home/directorypath
cvs [login aborted]: Error reading from server
annoying.physics.domain.edu: -1: Unknown error

However, if I try to log in via, a linux machine, it works.  However,
the command string I see echoed is differently constructed, e.g:

Logging in to
:pserver:[email protected]:2401/home/directorypath

What on earth is going on?  Why the difference in how the port is
specified, and why does the second command string work when the first
does not?
