These are not errors. The cvs server informs you about files that have
been removed from the cvs tree, usually because they are obsolete.
Normally cvs should then remove them also from your tree. 

The message 

 cvs update: move away FILENAME; it is in the way" 

appears when you have a file that exists on the distant repository, but
your local database (in CVS/Entries) thinks you don't have it, so cvs
should try to create it, which doesn't work because you have it already.
The usual reason for this is that you copied files manually that were
later on also created in the cvs tree on the server.
