We do have a similar problem with cvs export in cvs 1.11. BTW, it does not occur
with cvs 1.10.8.
As I tracked down, the problem is in cvs checkout.c in the function 'build_one_dir'
For exporting the function isfile checks whether there is a CVS directory. But, if you 
use
pserver access a CVS directory will be temporaly generated. Therefore the export fails.
For our purpose I removed the isfile(CVSADM) check...
Maybe someone could check, whether this correct.

Our environment is CVS 1.11 on SUSE 6.3 for the repository server.
