Make sure you are fetching src-all, and if you are not getting src-anything,
then either get src-base or set up $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/options to this:

23> cat /home/ncvs/CVSROOT/options
tag=FreeBSD=CVSHeader
tagexpand=iFreeBSD,Id

Fetching src-base will do this for you, as well as getting the modules files
and the commit logs.

Cheers,
