When I try to check out a branch using cygwin's cvs (v 1.11) there is a 
falure when checking out a specific directory.

When I check out the head using cygwin it all works fine.  Linux works 
fine.  There is nothing strange in the repository.  

If I move away that particular directory from the repository, it all 
works fine.  Simply having that directory in the repository (no RCS 
files in it - just an empty directory) breaks in the same way all the time.

Attached is some output that shows the problem.

Does anyone have an idea how to work around this ?

I'm pulling down the latest cvs/cywin source as 1.11.1p1 does not seem 
to compile out of the box on cygwin to try to track it down further but 
I'd appreciate any lead.  Thx!
