checking out to the same directory that did the import?

I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to checkout a module to the same
directory that did the import without blowing the directory away first.  As
expected, I'm getting the "cvs checkout: move away xxxx; it is in the way"
message on every file in the repository.  It took me a while to specify
everything that I DIDN'T want in the repository with a bunch of .cvsignore
files so doing a blanket rm -r before checking out the module would
obviously destroy stuff I want to keep.  Manually removing all the files
that I checked in also seems to be a rather daunting task.  Is there another
way?
