You must have done the cvs checkout last time as root.  You probably have a 
~/src/xastir directory and contents that are owned by root.

You can try (as a normal user):

    cd ~/src
    sudo rm -rf xastir

to get rid of of your src/xastir directory so that the cvs checkout command 
will work again for you as a normal user.
