Check out using a branch tag.  That's not what you did.  The error message
plainly stated you were using a non-branch tag.

If you want to do a bug fix on there, do something like:

cvs tag -b -r rel-6-0-0 rel-6-0-0-patches
cvs up -r rel-6-0-0-patches

That will create a branch called rel-6-0-0-patches, and you can then add
the file on that branch.  When you make all your other changes on that
branch, you can then do:

cvs tag rel-6-0-1

Or whatever to label that release.
