CVS should be easier to use...

Since the link to CVS info at cyclic software is broken, my memory
isn't good enough to remember the update instructions, and I'm lazy
enough to not want to look them up each time - I stole a target from
the FreeBSD Makefiles. This patch adds "udpate" as a target, which
does a cvs update. I'm not familiar enough with cvs to be sure that
I've set things up properly, and it probably needs tweaking for people
with commit privileges, but the following has worked for me so far.
