Short version: you are doing it wrong.

why are you using cvsync?  Why do you want to maintain your own repository?

ok, I'm deleting the rest of this out of fear that someone else might
think this is the process.

Go read http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq5.html
Start at the very first line, and go at least to 5.4.  Pay very very
close attention to sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.3 and 5.4.  (yes, I repeat
myself -- there's nothing in this first part you get to skip reading)

Be very careful to read (and follow) what it tells you to do, NOT what
you think it is telling you to do.  Your use of non-words like "up2date"
is telling me you are trying to use some other model on OpenBSD.

Nick.
