Are you perhaps using CVSNT rather than regular CVS?  I don't find any
trace of that error message in the CVS sources.

Restoring that file from a backup -- the message pretty clearly
indicates that the repository file has been corrupted.  You may want to
try running the contrib/validate_repo (or contrib/check_cvs depending on
which release of CVS you have) script against your repository to see if
any other files are also damaged.  You should also try to figure out how
the file got corrupted so you can prevent future damage.
