That's very weird, and smells to me of "CVS is evil!". src/sys in
particular should work fine; src/ or src/lib are weirder since only
subsets are branched (and additionally "src/" is a combination of
different modules due to the basesrc, gnusrc, syssrc, etc. split).

The relevant directories to check out on the branch are:

src/sys
src/lib/libc
src/lib/libpthread
src/lib/libsyscall
src/include

You will also need src/lib/runemodule and src/libexec/ld.elf_so,
either checked out from the mainline or as appropriate parallel
symlinks to the mainline, in order to build libc.

Be sure to run "make includes" in src/sys, src/include, and
src/lib/libpthread before attempting the build of libc.
