I am behind a firewall, so I would like "cvs" to be "runsocks cvs". However, all the cvs commands are hard-coded to be "cvs". If you added: CVS=cvs to the Makefile and change references to cvs to, for example: $(CVS) co foo then I could just change this in one place and get up and running quickly.
these sorts of suggestions always get implemented more quickly when there is a patch included.
When I have a patch, I will submit it.

OK, here's the promised patch. Now if you type: gmake CVS="runsocks cvs" -f client.mk it will run a sockified cvs so you can get through your SOCKS firewall.
