I remember somebody trying to upgrade to recently getting such errors. If that is what you are trying thenn I suggest you read /usr/src/UPDATING which contain the right procedure for upgrading from 3.4-stable to 4.0-current. If, on the other hand, you were just trying track -stable then you got the wrong sources with cvsup. Try again, this time asking for the 3.x-stable branch instead of -current. Hope this helps.
