Well, I have the 2.0.51 release installed and it is working just fine.
Then I built the project myself and got cvs.exe version 2.0.52 (I have
updated my newly checked out sandbox to tag CVSNT_2_0_x).
After I downloaded the kerberos and openssl files and pointed the
VS2003 include and lib settings to these files I now got the build
cvsnt to execute without fatal errors anymore.

So what I did next was to rename the 2.0.51 cvs.exe and then copy in
the newly compiled cvs.exe to the CVSNT install folder.
Now when I try any operation against my test repository I get the
authentication error in my face.
Switching back to the original cvs.exe restores the normal behaviour,
but of course I cannot check my fix for the quoted module name when
calling taginfo...

So my question is really if there are any other files I need to also
copy from my build? Maybe all of them??? I tried with the
sspi_protocol.dll but it made no difference.
