You have probably installed using a slightly old installer. Based on
recent reports on this problem and the supplied solutions I did a new
not so long ago.
You can download the newest one from my site or else download the
sources zipfile and look for the two files that have changed and
replace them.
These are the changed files:
1) lib/vclib/bincvs/__init__.py (makes sure \ is changed to /)
2) lib/viewcvs.py (adds a few new extensions to enscript highlighting)
The first changed file is the one you need.
