I lost days with this bug (many files in my case have a corrupted kopt).
take a look on the 'CVS' folder in omz13/prj/wxWidgets : the corruption is
visible in "entries" file, updated by the server (the guilty is not the
'add' operation).
I think it happens when a file has reborn after a remove and add, for
example. There is no rule to generate the bug: not all files, not only on
specific extensions, ...
(using TortoiseCVS and CVSNT build 1969 and 1973 on a 2000 professional and
a 2003 server)
A workarround is to force your file in binary (kopt b): the error
reappears once in logs, but commit and other operations will work.
Good Luck!
