Other's have reported problems checking out the (magic) "src" module
to a tag or branch. While it's possible to checkout the head first and
then update to the tag, the best thing is probably to start with a
nearby tarball. Then "cvs update -Pd -rnetbsd-1-5-PATCH001" from
within the directory should work.
