I've just submitted v4, which removes the 'escapeRefName' function, so we avoid the warnings and test failures when we build with new Perl releases. I think the next step would be to remove whole git-cvsserver as was said earlier. I'll take a look what it is going to take and submit a patch with the removal later, if that's ok
