This behavior has changed in the current development version -- you
might want to try it out. (Note that the mapping to repository
directories happens during checkout, so you'd have to do a new checkout
to see any difference.)

The simplest fix (although ugly), is to go to the affected working
directory, delete the CVS subdirectory, and then do a ``cvs co -l -d.''
of the correct repository directory.
