A short-term solution may be for you to manually download any files that
you urgently need a local copy of, and overwrite the local copy that
way.  CVS should happily merge the changes for you next time you do a
cvs update from a CVS server once its got those changes; it will display
them as local changes.

I suspect the only files that fall into this category are the ones
Nickolay fixed (if any) for the intltool problem you had; do you need
any other fixes? (nothing much has changed recently from an i18n point
of view)

A longer-term solution is for you to get a GNOME CVS account.
Information on doing this can be found here:
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/policies/accounts/requesting.html

(You should coordinate with the rest of the gnome i18n team if you're
committing translations)

I hope this helps, and I'm sorry that the anoncvs option sucks.
