Modules are order dependent

[Stephen Rasku]

I reported the attached bug about two weeks ago.  I have some more 
information about another condition.

Given the following modules:

        belcarra        tgx/3rdparty/belcarra
        bcgi            -d belcarra/enroute tgx/enroute/clients/cgi
        bbalance_server -d belcarra/enroute/balance_server \            
                           tgx/enroute/clients/balance_server
                          
The following works:
        
BELCARRA -a     belcarra bcgi bbalance_server
        
but the following doesn't:

BELCARRA -a     belcarra bbalance_server bcgi 

It appears that CVS doesn't like the fact that enroute was a parent 
directory of another module -- a phantom directory if you will.  It 
shouldn't really care.  The CVS/Repository file should be set to NULL or 
some other value to indicate that you can't "cvs add" files in here and 
check them in.

Using CVS version 1.11.1 on SPARC Solaris.

Given the following modules:

        belcarra                        tgx/3rdparty/belcarra
        bcgi -d belcarra/enroute        tgx/enroute/clients/cgi
        
The following works:
        
        BELCARRA -a             belcarra bcgi
        
but the following doesn't:

        BELCARRA -a             bcgi belcarra
        
It gives the following error:
