Probably not. All future changes of this ilk should now have a subject
line of "READ OR DO NOT RUN CVS MYTHTV!!!".

CVS should probably have a message on connect to this effect as well.

Additionally, MythTV should refuse to run without a magic number code
that is distributed randomly in one of these messages.

A default make file should also be present that simply echoes "Read the
commits list before you compile, you insensitive clod!!!"

With your cooperation, I'm sure we can get this situation promptly
resolved.

Seriously folks, you're running CVS! You should be subscribed to the
commits list. If you can't get it to run, then the FIRST thing you
should be doing is going back over the commits list (you're subscribed,
right? And you're definitely not deleting email from after your last CVS
update, are you?)

It's really not that much to ask. If you feel that it is too much to
ask, then do feel free to not run CVS... it is unrealistic to ask Isaac
to handle every single case that *you* could make a mistake...
