  You ended up with kernel plus userland source.  Slightly changing
the command to

  cvs -d $CVSROOT update -rnetbsd-BRANCH -PAd src/sys

instead, would narrow the retreival to just kernel source (albeit,
kernel source for all platforms...).

  The old kernel source tarballs also tended to include a usr.sbin
directory with source to "config", which you might need, but would
have to checkout separately in this case.
