The problem is that the directory appears to have been removed from
the repository. There is really no way to remove a directory in CVS
in a way that keeps revision history, i.e., in the sense that if you
checkout an earlier revision/tag it recreates the removed directory.
The method that comes closest is to `cvs rm' all files in the
directory and then use `cvs update -P' to prune empty directories.
Deleting directories in the repository is equivalent to deleting
files from the repository: you lose the history and you mess up
already checked out copies. So I don't think there is a better
solution than the one you suggested for the current situation . . .
