The CVS server receiving a misformed Notify request. ;-)
Usually, that's caused by having edits or watches in a directory that
contains an "invalid" character: "+", ",", ">", ";", "=", tab, or
newline. The same thing will happen if the host name contains any of
those characters, but that's much less common.
The current development version gives a more reasonable message in these
cases.
