Yes, I agree that the above warnings may have nothing to do with the
problem. We need to understand what the problem is. The strace shows
this:

write(2, "cvs [update aborted]: cannot get"..., 78cvs [update aborted]: cannot 
get working directory: No such file or directory) = 78

...but I don't see any system calls that returned -ENOENT. Maybe it
occurred in another thread or something?

So I'm a little unclear as to what cvs is complaining about. It's quite
possible that it's ultimately a bug in cifs, but without more info I
really can't guess as to what the problem is. What we really need is a
description of the problem couched in terms of the system call
interface.
