(I'd have likely done a: `cvs update -d *' afterwords.)

Your work around explains what happend.  I'd checked out the trunk but 
on that ``dbsym'' was empty so the directory was pruned (and the 
CVS/Repository pointing to the directories real location was lost). When 
I went back to the branch, the non-existant directory couldn't be 
restored :-(

A final step to your fix:
	echo 'D/dbsym////' >> /usr/src/usr.sbin/CVS/Entries

Thanks!
