Reading the list archives would help A LOT.

My snapshot is of the KONQE_1_0_BRANCH and is most likely current since I
didn't see any other work in months.

By default CVS uses the HEAD revision which is based on KDE 3 and an old
autoconf, automake, libtool and not worked on since long ago.

So to recreate my snapshot you should
    cvs checkout -r KONQE_1_0_BRANCH kdenox

Since the tag is sticky you won't need to specify it for future updates.
