Move your current make_hlds.m to make_hlds.m.tmp,
then do `cvs update -r <revision-number> make_hlds.m',
then do `mv make_hlds.m.tmp make_hlds.m'.
This will convince CVS that your make_hlds.m is changed
with respect to the specified <revision-number>.

You then NEED to remember to use `cvs update -A'
instead of `cvs update' when you want to update to
the latest version.
