Ah! That makes sense. I lost a few hundred files after the fsck, so I did an 'lcvs up' to make sure none of the src tree was missing. And my .cvsrc has 'update -Pd' in it. It had been a fresh checkout previously. That's actually rather scary. It implies that a freshly checked out tree checked out with plain 'cvs co src' is no longer buildable.
