checking modules doesn't create directory desired

[Jonathan Villa]

I have 4 modules specified, they are as simple as

xxxx     yyyy/zzzzz
xxxx     yyyy/zzzzz
xxxx     yyyy/zzzzz
xxxx     yyyy/zzzzz

when I checkout the module, it creates a directory called $module_name,
which is fine.  Now, I have one different entry in the modules file.

xxxxx -a !wwww/yyy/zzzz !wwww/yyy/zzzz !www/yyy/zzzz !www/yyy/zzzz
!www/yyy/zzzz wwww/yyyy

If I check that module out, it will create a directory called www/yyyy
when it should be created as xxxxxx, which is the module name.

Any reason why this wouldn't work.

I've tried several things, for example, creating other modules and making
&aliases to check out, but doesn't work/
