I'm sure you  know CVS is meant for development :-)  so CVS versions are
not for  "users" but  rather for  developers that want  to test  the CVS
version. These  users know what  to do, "joe"  user will not,  but "joe"
user should use releases and not CVS.

Btw  your  patch is  welcome  to  make  bootstrap.sh more  "all  distro"
friendly.
