cvs (via cvsps) fails to parse INITIAL as revision

[shadow]

File "/opt/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/vcpx/repository/cvsps.py",
line 257, in _getUpstreamChangesets
   for cs in changesets_from_cvsps(log, sincerev):
 File "/opt/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/vcpx/repository/cvsps.py",
line 191, in changesets_from_cvsps
   if compare_cvs_revs(e.old_revision, fromrev)>0:
 File "/opt/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/vcpx/repository/cvs.py",
line 53, in compare_cvs_revs
   r1 = normalize_cvs_rev(revstr1)
 File "/opt/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/vcpx/repository/cvs.py",
line 39, in normalize_cvs_rev
   r = [int(n) for n in rev.split('.')]
ValueError: invalid literal for int(): INITIAL

looks like fromrev is INITIAL and that just gets passed to the cvs rev comparison, which isn't going to work.

What *should* happen?

cvsps diff... might fix it?
