Note that both versions are rather old and full of bugs. I would highly
recommend to update to a more recent 1.11.x version. (Although, the
problems you are having are not related to this).

Well, I do not agree with the Eclipse developments, so.... ;)

Well, I either misunderstood you in the first place, or you were not
exact:

You CANNOT check in deleted folders. This is not even possible with SVN,
AFAIK.
What you have checked in is the removed xfolder/xfile:

If you would use "cvs up -d" afterwards, the folder would reappear.
Anyway, since Eclipse seems to use "-P" additionally, xfolder/ will be
deleted immediately.

Indeed, THIS is not possible. xfolder is in the repository, thus, CVS
will handle it, regardless of what you do.

CVS cannot ignore the directory xfolder/. .cvsignore is used for files
and directories which are not under the control of CVS. Since xfolder/
was checked in, it is under the control of CVS. You cannot change this.
Your best bet might be: Disregard using "-P" on update and checkout, and
put a .cvsignore file INTO xfolder/.
HTH,
Spiro.
