One of the charming warts of cvs is that if you update/check out without the -P option, every directory that has ever existed in the repository will be created in your source tree. This will cause problems in several parts of the build, where there is now a file with the same name as the former directory (I hadn't encountered the libgmp problem myself, but there's a similar problem with tar).
