It would do that, only if irrelevant directores were identified
with an "cvs remove", to actually designate them as if deleted.
Because that source subtree (buggy as it is) is still used by
insight and snavigator, it can't be "cvs remove"d.  Your "cvs update -d -P"
dutifully pulled it (and everything else under src/) into your
working tree.

I'm glad to hear.  I'll commit a variety of C++ and build cleanups
to src/sid in the coming days, including that patch.
