We have two different development branches of two distinct product. 

standard/prg1
standard/prg...
standard/lib

grade/prg1
grade/prg...

Now I want standard to share the library directory with grade.  I edited
CVSROOT/modules files as such:

grade/lib standard/lib
ProductC -a grade grade/lib

When I do "cvs get ProductC" that works fine but if I try "cvs get
-dtmpname ProductC" the lib directory is not checkout and I see the
following error:

Cvs checkout: existing repository /cvs/home/grade does not match
/cvs/home/standard/lib
Cvs checkout: ignoring module grade/lib

I'd start here in the manual.

http://ximbiot.com/cvs/manual/cvs-1.11.21/cvs_18.html#SEC159 

C.1 The modules file

But more specifically, this section is likely what you really
are looking for in this case:

http://ximbiot.com/cvs/manual/cvs-1.11.21/cvs_18.html#SEC162

C.1.3 Ampersand modules

I think your solution may be similar to:

standard/prg1
standard/prg...
standard/lib

grade/prg1
grade/prg...

grade/lib &standard/lib
ProductC -a grade grade/lib
