Multiple vendor branch support in CVS is not really implemented and
definitely does not work in any way you might expect it to.
You'll have to use two real branches (unpack into a working directory
checked out on the brand and commit all changes manually) and then do
whatever merges to your development branch (perhaps the trunk, or
whatever) you wish to do from any of the third-party branches.
