You must use -kb on "cvs add", not on "cvs commit".

Did you do the checkin on Windows? In this case, the files are broken,
and you cannot repair them. You must rebuild them and check them in
again.

You might also want to generate a cvswrappers file (cf.
http://ximbiot.com/cvs/manual/cvs-1.11.23/cvs_18.html#SEC177). This way,
you can ensure that whenever a file with a specific ending is added, -kb
is assumed automatically.

HTH,
Spiro.
