Check CVS/Root in that directory. If you do a remote cvs operation it
sometimes likes to update the repository to point to freefall, which then
screws up cvs update unless you specify "-d /home/ncvs". I have aliases
lcvs and rcvs which explicitly state the -d to use (I think this advice
came from the committer's guide)
