I was modifying sources in .../usr.sbin/pkg_install and .../lib/libc/* --
tweaking around with some stuff -- and CVS kept the modified files as
expected, even after I deleted the directories (IIRC). It was until I got a
clean repository that things were fixed (that was before Kris told me about
-A / -Pd usage). I hadn't used cvs(1) in that capacity before.
