Oh... The FreeBSD Project has decided to separate its CVS repositories into four - src, doc, ports, projects respectively. There are now four actual "CVSROOT"'s so to avoid conflicits they are called CVSROOT-src, CVSROOT-ports and so forth when you check out from a CVS repository and CVSROOT was changed to a combined one that contains necessary information for checkouts (e.g. modules, etc). So you may want to have: cvs co CVSROOT-src instead of cvs co CVSROOT if you want the CVSROOT source for the src repository.
