 This can also be caused by doing a checkout without the -P (prune
 empty directories) option.  The perl build system gets confused by
 the presence of the old directories that have since moved to the
 cpan directory.
 
 If that is the problem, a simple "cvs up -PAd src/gnu/usr.bin/perl"
 should fix things.
