Nope, its the way cvs works and is the consequence of trivial touching
of files on vendor branches.

See committers rules, #12:

"* Do not commit to anything under the src/contrib, src/crypto, and src/sys/
contrib trees without explicit approval from the respective maintainer(s).

The trees mentioned above are for contributed software usually imported
onto a vendor branch. Committing something there, even if it does not take
the file off the vendor branch, may cause unnecessary headaches for those
responsible for maintaining that particular piece of software. Thus, unless
you have explicit approval from the maintainer (or you are the maintainer),
do not commit there!"

Cheers,
-Peter
