cvs-1.11.1p1 (client): cvs co fails with &module inclusion

[luik]

Program:        cvs
Version:        1.11.1p1

Host:           all
Area:           client

Synopsis:       cvs co fails with &module inclusion

Description:
    "cvs checkout" fails with the following error messages:

benz:/tmp(3)> cvs co odstb_all
cvs server: Updating odstb
cvs server: Updating odstb/config
...
cvs checkout: move away odstb/doc/.cvsignore; it is in the way
C doc/.cvsignore
cvs checkout: move away odstb/doc/Imakefile; it is in the way
C doc/Imakefile
...

    This happens under the following conditions:

    1. remote access to the repository is used, i.e. cvs client/server.
    2. an already existing work tree is checked out again
       (i.e. updated with the "co" command); note: the error does not
       appear when "update" is used, but update does not checkout new
       directories.
    3. The &module feature is used in the module file.  Our modules
       files reads as follows:

_odstb_doc      -d doc _odstb_doc
_odstb_ids      -d lib/ids _odstb_ids
odstb           odstb
odstb_all       -d odstb odstb &_odstb_doc &_odstb_ids


Reproduce with:

1. use remote repository access
2. add abovementioned lines to modules file
3. call

% cvs co -A odstb_all
% cvs co -A odstb_all
