That implies that you're trying to checkout into an existing b-c-r
directory that already contains stuff (in particular, it contains,
either directly or indirectly in some subdirectory, a CVS/Repository
file that contains "/var/cvs/htdocs").  Checkout into a new directory
and everything should work.
