[ic] CVS tracking

Now that there is a stable 4.8 out, those of you who have been
tracking CVS may want to think about what you are doing.

There are two branches, the main development branch, marked version
4.9.0, and the STABLE_4_8-branch, which is the release version with
any bugfixes or minor enhancements.

We are about to rip things up again.

The default branch is development, so if you have been using the
CVS version for a running catalog you may want to switch to the
STABLE_4_8-branch for that. The 4.9 branch may introduce instabilities,
though most of those should be in the area of catalog configuration to
begin with, with little change to core.

Best idea is to checkout two new copies of the source:

    # stable
    cvs -d :pserver:anon_cvs@cvs.ic.redhat.com:/var/cvs \
        co -r STABLE_4_8-branch -d ic48 interchange

    # devel
    cvs -d :pserver:anon_cvs@cvs.ic.redhat.com:/var/cvs \
        co -d ic49 interchange
