You've actually just come in at a bit of a bad time. The folks over at
apache have been working really hard to break apr out of the apache
tree and into its own tree. They've reworked /tmp to speed up cvs
access as well (but it still takes a while to get the whole apr tree).
Here's the latest and greatest (I'll update autogen.sh in a moment).
(password is anoncvs)
$ cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@apache.org:/home/cvspublic login
$ cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@apache.org:/home/cvspublic co apr

Like I said, you just came in at the wrong moment. Try the above again
and see if you have any luck.
