I assume you've probably fixed this by now.  For future reference (and
anyone else who runs into this problem): stale locks tend to be left
around when CVS crashes, and have to be removed by hand by logging on to
cvs.haskelll.org with SSH, and removing the appropriate lock file from
/home/cvs/root/<wherever> which is usually called something beginning
with '.#cvs' IIRC.

Cheers,
