An attempt to execute wincvs.exe produces an error RS6034, complaining of incorrect loading of the C runtime library.  After I reply OK to three of these error popups, wincvs starts but does not seem to have read the database files. I reinstalled wincvs, but that did not help.
---------------------------------------

Since I haven't heard from others on this, I presume there is no general problem for the CVS community. Once I had backed everything up, I tried to use CVS anyway despite all the error messages, and found that the problem is confined to Python and TCL. I have Python 2.6.2 installed. When I called its GUI, IDLE, directly it complained about being rejected by MacAfee's firewall. Turning that firewall off and using Microsoft Vista's firewall instead seems to fix both problems.
