No problems at all, except that "cvs up" cannot patch files (because they are treated as binary), so it downloads the whole files downstream, which takes longer, especially with large files (such as ChangeLog). Unless your connection is slow, this shouldn't matter much, though. Anyway, this has nothing to do with Patch; as I wrote patching Emacs works even if you don't checkout with -kb. (And I think we are way off topic on this list, anyway.)
