That is a general problem with CVS, it cannot completely remove empty
directories, as they are needed in the repository to hold the version
information for the deleted files in the directory.

You can however prevent your checkout from creating these directories by
using "cvs checkout -P", where "-P" stands for "Prune empty directories".
