Hello!
 please try setting
 (setq cvs-auto-remove-directories nil)
 and see whether that helps. 
I am afraid, it did not helps.
Now the other directories are displayed, but the files are not placed  
in them:

 You could also try updating to the latest satble verion of PCL-CVS,
 which is 1.63, as follows:
 XEmacs <= 21.1
 Options->Manage Packages->Add Download 
Site->xemacs.org
 Options->Manage Packages->List & Install
 XEmacs >= 21.4
 Tools->Packages->Add Download 
Site->xemacs.org
 Tools->Packages->List & Install 
When I try this, then XEMACS hangs ...
can I install the latest  
version by hand?
BTW: Under Linux PCL-CVS 2_9_9 works without this problems ...
BTW2: Why is 1.63 newer than 2_9_9?
Thanks,
Robert
