The real URL to use for anonymous pserver is this one:
:pserver:anonymous@cvs.alioth.debian.org:/cvsroot/webwml

It's the one documented on: 
https://alioth.debian.org/scm/?group_id=1135

The configuration of the pserver restrict the path of the repositories
to the official URL, and despite the cvs -> cvsroot symlink, it will not
accept it.

(see /usr/share/gforge/plugins/scmcvs/sbin/cvs-pserver on alioth)

You probably want to update this somewhere in the docs.
