I may have run into this with WinCVS. If you didn't delete everything you checked
out the first time, maybe WinCVS is finding data directories still sitting around
and getting confused?
e.g.
# cvs co -P Dev/RTPP
# deltree Dev/RTPP
# cvs co -P Dev/RTPP
Then it might find Dev/CVS/Entries and assume a CVS workspace but not be able to
find Dev/RTPP/CVS/Entries...
Just a thought.
