I guess it is always possible to check out the sourceforge CVS tree and
implant it into your own CVS repository as a "vendor branch".  The
subsequent changes by the mainstream developers can be not only imported
into the "vendor branch" but also applied to the local main branch.

Even better, the original CVS tree can be converted into a Subversion
"vendor branch" tree by using a certain script from the Subversion
project.  Another script exists in the same project that will recognize
file name changes in the updated "vendor branch", so that the same
changes would be intelligently re-applied by Subversion to your own
branch.

In any way, local changes can co-exist with the mainstream changes in
the local repository.  I think the GPL licence would then mandate to
make at least the local snapshot available at request as soon as its
results are traded.
