I'm so sorry about the demanding tone of my "cry for help", but i'm really
very upset and confused.

Here are the details of the problem:

1) The task:
    -------------
i want to checkout a tagged snapshot of myproject, so
i try a  "cvs co -r mytag myproj" and receive the following:

cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot open directory .../CVS/mypoj/Attic: Not a
directory

2) cygwin1.dll: 1.3.6-cygwin-1-3-6-6 (APIVersion: 0.47,
BuildDate: 2001-12-08 17:02);

3) $ echo $CVSROOT

:local:/cygdrive/c/usr/local/CVS

4) There are no ".cvsrc" files;

5)  $ type -a cvs

cvs is /usr/bin/cvs
cvs is /bin/cvs

6) $ cvs --version

Concurrent Versions System  (CVS) 1.11 (client/server)
...

7) $ cygcheck cvs

Found: C:\cygwin\bin\cvs.exe
C:\cygwin\bin\cvs.exe
    C:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll
        C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\KERNEL32.dll
    C:\cygwin\bin\cyggdbm.dll

8) $ cygcheck -s
