pcl-cvs/cvs error, "^M: no such repository"

["Rancier, Jeff" <Jeff.Rancier@Sensis.com>]

All, I just created from scratch, a new repository.  So keep in mind I can
zap it.  All my pcl-cvs commands fail, due to what looks like a trailing
'^M' somewhere.  I started clean, and imported a directory, then immediately
did a checkout.  Output below:  As you can see, the get the problem right
away.  I've zapped the directories, and tried in DOS and in Cygwin bash.
Both times changing the file types of CVS/Root, Entries, and Repository from
DOS to Unix and back, to no avail.  Was there something I missed when
creating the repository?  The Emacs backtrace and output are below.  Any
pointers would be appreciated.  I'm using GNU Emacs 21.3.1
(i386-mingw-nt5.0.2195) of 2004-03-10 on NYAUMO.
