Hi,

The cvs task isn't built-in as such - it doesn't do the actual work inside
ant, it is simply a wrapper that executes the 'cvs' command.  If you don't
have the 'cvs' command in your PATH environment variable, this task won't
work.  And the error message if 'cvs' can't be found is the rather cryptic
'IOException ...' that you're seeing.
