Deleted like 
A) Someone goofed up at deleted a directory within the repository,
or
B) Someone deleted all files in a checked out version of the module and
   ran cvs delete+cvs commit on the files?

If A) then head for the backup tapes - or hope someone has a working 
version of the directory - or cry :)

if B) Then the files are found in the Attic area of the repository.
Those can be recovered...

Best (hope for B)
