Who knows, but it's a different kind of conflict.  The usual
conflicts are overlapping changes by two people, but this one is
a collision between a non-cvs file in your sandbox and a file added
under the same name by someone else.  The two kinds are detected
at different places in the CVS code and the two messagea are
different.  They probably *should* be different, since the corrective
actions are different:  edit conflict markers in one case, rename
a file in the other case.
