No. Getting empty directories when you don't specify a revision or -P
is just an accident of history -- we generally suggest adding -P to your
.cvsrc file so that it behaves consistently. Either add a file to the
directory so it's not empty anymore or create it another way (e.g., as
part of your build process) rather than expecting CVS to create it.
