The cvsup port is normally used now only for cvsupd, for which there
is no csupd analog. As far as I know, and perhaps mux (CC'd) could
confirm every feature present in cvsup is present in csup-- and it's a
fair amount faster too.

Of course, cvsup could probably do with fixing, but for now csup is
literally a drop-in replacement; it'll read all your supfiles too.
