I get the same problems you are experiencing too once in a while. Lazy as I 
am I mostly just decide to re-checkout all of it (I'm on 100mbit, and my 
neighbour runs a cvs mirror :). But seriously, I don't have a clue what could 
be the cause. I'm going to try and do a 'cvs up' in the module directory 
itself, perhaps that helps (can't see why though).

Good luck,
