Every working directory must be associated with some directory in the
repository. Emptydir is a place-holder repository directory that is
used by working directories that have no obvious corresponding
repository directory (usually this is caused by using a -d option on
checkout and specifying multiple levels of directories -- only the
bottom-most level has an obvious correspondence with a repository
directory). It appears that someone has created files in one of these
fictitious working directories and committed them; current versions of
CVS do not allow this.
What you need to do is manually move the files in the repository to the
correct location(s); then you'll be able to check them out.
