cvs bug in mixed tag/not



I did something that seemed like it ought to work if one didn't think
hard, and ended up wrongly committing on pkgsrc-2014Q4 instead.

cd /usr/pkgsrc/bootstrap
cvs up -A README.MacOSX
# Note that the file itself is updated with the HEAD RCSId
# but that the CVS/Tags files is unchanged
emacs -nw README.MacOSX
# commit from within emacs


So obviously the answer is "don't do this", but perhaps -A and -r should
error if not applied to whole directories.
