Instead of the 'cat' command, the following works fine for me:

# Always allow CVSROOT files to be comitted
^CVSROOT        /bin/true

Since you cannot commit right now, you must edit commitinfo directly
on your server (in $CVSROOT/CVSROOT).  Then you must also fix any copies
you have checke out, before you commit again... to avoid getting in the
same situation.
