Look at http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=27495
There you'll find an analysis and an 'official' workaround by John D. Polstra,
the author and maintainer of CVSup.  This is a problem with CVSup's
incorrectly handling a very uncommon and obscure CVS repository weirdness.
It has been discussed on the -ports mailing list several times in
the last few days.

G'luck,
Peter
