Dead means removed from the HEAD (but still available for older versions).
So someone made cvs remove file, cvs commit file.

>how to recover from dead state?

Just re-add it. cvs add file, cvs commit file.

You can't change the state of 1.2 but you don't need to. If you need
the content you can just check out this version even with dead state.
cvs checkout -r1.2 file.

version 1.1 was real, version 1.2 was the deleted version 1.1, version
1.3 was the resurrected file and version 1.4 was the version after
version 1.3.

You don't really need or want the text of version 1.2 which will likely
be a zero length revision. It is only important for the date of the
commit. If you ask for the main trunk with a -D flag using a
date-and-time between the time that version 1.1 was created and version
1.2 was committed as a dead revision, you will get version 1.1. If you
ask for the main trunk between the time that version 1.2 was committed
as dead and the version 1.3 was re-added to the repository, the main
trunk will NOT contain that file as it was not present during normal
checkouts of your tree in that time frame. Starting from the time that
version 1.3 was re-added to the tree thru the time that 1.4 was
committed, you would get version 1.3 and from the time of 1.4 thru the
present you would get version 1.4.
