This shouldn't happen.  It's caused by a mismatch between the CVS/Entries
file and the actual contents of the directory.

Example:
nexus@thune[11:47am]src/wine/wine(511) (ls -l ; cat CVS/Entries) | grep wine.ini 
-rw-------   1 nexus    users        4576 Nov  2 14:08 wine.ini
/wine.ini/1.36/Thu Nov  2 22:08:47 2000//

Are you using a file system that is not case senstive and tools that may
change the case of files?  If you see this, does the CVS/Entries file still
have the file listed?  Is your disk full where maybe the rewriting of the
CVS/Entries file fails?
