I've been using CVS HEAD constantly, updating almost daily, and have not
had either of these problems.  Have you updated recently?

This is how it works for me.  Always has. (I'm sure I'd notice if this 
didn't work that way)

I think the behaviour was broken at some point in CVS HEAD for several
hours (maybe half a day or so even).  But (if it was) it was quickly fixed
when Chuck pointed it out...   Maybe you updated that day during the broken
period and never updated since?

My filters run at login just fine, and if they ever didn't for some period
of time I didn't notice.

I'd say something local to your installation, or you updated when it was
broken and never again since.

Basic premise of CVS code is if it doesn't work, update again ;)

harmless among the rank and file, but when management is afflicted the damage
can be measured in dollars. It's also contagious -- someone with sufficient
political clout can infect an entire organization."
