Are you using cvs on the command line, or a GUI? WinCVS for example (and probably its brethren), defaults to checking out readonly. Its in the globals I think (not at my dev machine at the moment)
I am using the commandline and cvs -w does not cut it either. And no I don't have CVSREAD set. But yes there still might be something I missed.
You might look in the docs to see if there's something that can be set in your .cvsrc to change this.
I did try this, without success. Also, note that only few files in Boost have watches on them, so this should not matter either. But, I recall there were plans to switch to Subversion, which does not have such problems (in addition to being vastly better that CVS in other respect). What happened to those plans? - Volodya
