You should use option '-P' when doing a cvs update. It removes
directories that are no more used.

And by the way, options -d (also fetch new directories) and -A (remove
all tags) will certainly be useful too.

In summary:

% cvs update -dPA


Don't forget to put
MKOBJDIRS=
and possibly
OBJMACHINE=

in your /etc/mk.conf so that you don't have to make cleandir before
doing a cvs update. You'll have to mkdir /usr/obj (with the default
setup) for this to be even more useful.

You can find infos about this at:

http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/current/

and reading the beginning of /usr/src/Makefile and
/usr/src/etc/Makefile can be useful too.

Don't forget to read /usr/src/UPDATING if you have troubles making a
build after a cvs update.
