Summary: <cvs-pass> and <cvs-checkout> handle passfile incorrectly

Initial Comment:
It seems to us that <cvs-pass> and <cvs-checkout> behave strangely with respect to cvspass attribute.

Detailed description:

Say we would like to use passfile="./.cvspass" which means we want NAnt to create the file in the same directory from which the nant.exe is started and use that pass file to login to CVS server. Here's what turns out: <cvs-pass> creates the file in current working directory as expected, while <cvs-checkout> seems to look elsewhere (ignores what we explicitly specified in our .build script). We later find out it actually looks to the root folder of the drive in which we run our build script. e.g. C:\, D:\ or the like.

We are using NAnt 0.85 release with .NET 2.0 and Windows XP SP2.

Any tips, hints, info, fixes will be much appreciated.
