M client.cpp		1.178 -> 1.179	Bug Id: 

Log message:

This patch includes a whole swath of new debugging, but hidden in here is
an important change.

The client no longer will send the server a request for ./filename.ext, but
will change it to filename.ext.  It seems that when an update fails that
the client then requests the server send ./filename that the server in turn
just spits at and causes a whole mess of errors.

Here is the core diagnostic:

cvs server: Updating .
P recurse.cpp
cvs server: update cannot remove backup CVS/,,recurse.cpp: Result too large
cvs update: checksum failure on update after patch to ./recurse.cpp; will refetch
cvs client: refetching unpatchable files
cvs server: Updating .
U recurse.cpp


Look in update_entries() for the change that compares the first two characters
of the failed_patches short_pathname with "./" to decide whether it needs
to be trimmed or not.
