The softupdates code was merged with current (the licence issues were
resolved I guess), so when you cvsupped the system copied the updated
ffs_softdep.c on your existing symlink, then deleted the target the
symlink pointed to, leaving you with a dangling symlink.  

Delete those symlinks (ffs_softdep.c and softdep.h IIRC) and try
cvsupping again.
