When comitting a project changes to CVS, I often use multi-line comments.  This
causes problems with the CVS Console output, however.  Consider the following
example:

-----8<-----
cvs ci -m " - Implemented something.
 - Implemented something else.
 - Implemented a third thing.
 - And another thing." "/project/dir/foo.java" "/project/dir/bar.java"
  Checking in dir/foo.java;
  /data/cvs/java/project/foo.java,v  <--  foo.java
  new revision: 1.24; previous revision: 1.23
  done
  Checking in dir/bar.java;
  /data/cvs/java/project/bar.java,v  <--  bar.java
  new revision: 1.26; previous revision: 1.25
  done
ok (took 0:02.294)
***
-----8<-----

The first line of the cvs command is black, as per my prefs for CVS command
line.  The second, third and fourth lines are blue, as per my prefs for CVS
messages.  The blue continues all the way to three lines before the last "done"
line ("Checking in dir/bar.java;") and everything after that is black again. 
Highlighting in subsequent CVS operations is also off by the same number of
lines, and it seems to be incremental.
