 (Several other ports still do this too and are equally broken.)

 I am wrong. SourceForge CVS still exists and just fixing the base bug
 allows Chmox to be fetched.

 > 2. MacPorts base has developed a problem where it cannot fetch from CVS,
 which obviously used to work.

 This bug was caused by [da3524e8a3006a9b9a2370b66fa91bb554dd768b/macports-
 base] (which introduced build progress bars) which was included for the
 first time in MacPorts 2.7.0. Prior to this commit, `command_exec`
 accepted flags before or after the command; after this commit, flags are
 only accepted before the command but not all uses of `command_exec` were
 adjusted to match this new requirement; the invocation of `command_exec`
 for `cvs` for example was not.
