[Zope-Coders] ZServer location

For my "installer branch", I'd like to move the ZServer package into
lib/python.  Currently it lives in "ZOPE_HOME".

But the way that the CVS repository is configured, ZServer is symlinked
into ZOPE_HOME and thus can't itself be removed on my branch via "cvs
rm".  I'm not sure what to do here.  In a perfect world, what I'd like
is to move ZServer from ZOPE_HOME into ZOPE_HOME/lib/python while not
having an impact on any other branch than the one I'm working on.  I
could just go ahead and add ZServer to lib/python on my branch, but I
still can't prevent a "cvs up" from retrieving the ZOPE_HOME ZServer
package.  I suppose I could just cvs remove all the files from the
ZOPE_HOME ZServer package on my branch, preventing any files from being
populated into it when someone does a "cvs up".

Any CVSphiles have a better idea?
