cvs update, but your newly created working directry rvenning_tosacl
should have been brought up to date in the branch creating process, so I
suspect you are still trying to commit the changes in HEAD..

cvsmkbranch creates a NEW working directory for you with the name
../branchname. You need to move your changes into this new working
directory and commit them from there, not the original "HEAD" working
directory.
