I open a CVS window with

  M-x cvs-quickdir RET RET

I choose a file, and generate a *cvs-info* window by typing "+"

I move the cursor to one of the tags in the *cvs-info* window, and attempt
to open that file with "o"

I get an error message:

cvs-check-fileinfo: Invalid :dir in cvs-fileinfo [cl-struct-cvs-fileinfo nil
UNKNOWN nil c:/emacs-21.1/bin/ ldrindex.c nil nil nil ]


The CVS repository is a remote one.
The same key sequence works for on another machine with Linux.
