I've noticed that if I'm working on the HEAD version, and if there
are one or more commits and I haven't done an update, then svn log
will show the logs for the HEAD, not for the version I have.
I typically run cvs log to see which revision I'm working with, so
maybe svn log should just at the top of its output state the
revision in the working directory.

I did a cvs log on apr and checked netstat -a to see if there were
any open or closed connections to apache.org. There were none, and
then I did a cvs update, and there was one connection.
