removing a "ghost" directory?

I'm gotten into a strange situation where I can't remove a
subdirectory from my repository.

address@hidden dist]$ cvs -z6 update -P -d
cvs server: Updating .
cvs server: Updating TMDA
cvs server: Updating bin
cvs server: Updating contrib
cvs server: Updating doc
cvs server: Updating htdocs
cvs server: Updating templates

The output above says "Updating doc", but no doc directory exists.
doc is still shown as part of the repository.

This is a problem because once someone checks out my source from
anonymous CVS, they get an error each time they try to update.  What
is causing this?

hrothgar:~/cvs [255] % cvs -z3 -d:pserver:address@hidden:/cvsroot/tmda co tmda
[output deleted]

hrothgar:~/cvs/tmda [258] % cvs -z6 update -P -d
cvs server: Updating .
cvs server: Updating TMDA
cvs server: Updating bin
cvs server: Updating contrib
cvs server: Updating doc
cvs server: Updating htdocs
cvs server: Updating templates
cvs update: cannot remove doc: Unknown error 523
cvs update: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory
cvs update: cannot remove doc: Unknown error 523

How can I fix this?
