I've ported cvsmapfs to perl5, and it passes the sanity checks on
linux.  Here are the steps to build it:

	1.  Make sure that the sys/syscall.ph perl header is available
	    so that cvsmapfs can find the system call number for
	    mknod(2).  If the header is not available various
	    heuristics are applied but they aren't very robust.

	1a. To generate and install perl headers do:

		cd /usr/include
		find . -type f -print | xargs -n 1 h2ph

	2.  Unpack the uuencode and tarfile.

	3.  Edit the top lines of cvsmapfs and mkregression to invoke
	    your favorite binary of perl4 or perl5.

	4.  VERY IMPORTANT: Run the script 'regression' as root to do
	    some basic sanity-checking on cvsmapfs.

	5.  Read the comments at the top of cvsmapfs to learn how to
	    use it.  This program is distributed in the hope that it
	    will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the
