That indicates that your repository is corrupt.  The only way to "fix"
it is to edit that RCS file by hand or restore it from a backup.  If i
were you, I'd have two major concerns at this point:  How many other RCS
files in the repository are also damaged?  How did they get damaged?

For the first, Donald Sharp has written a perl script to check the
integrity of a repository:

        http://ccvs.cvshome.org/servlets/ReadMsg?msgId=3122&listName=info

For the second, are you accessing your repository with some kind of
shared filesystem (like Windows file sharing, Samba, or NFS)?  If so,
stop it immediately and use client/server CVS instead!  There have been
many reports of corruption caused by bugs in such filesystems.  If not,
it's likely you have some kind of a hardware problem.  What kind of a
system is your server running on and what kind of disk holds the
repository?
