That directory was explicitly removed from the CVS tree, because it was empty and created name conflics with the one called Images on non-case-senstivie platforms.
I guess you would have to remove your local directory images, perhaps physically from the CVS/* files as well.

CVS update doesn't create or delete directories by default; you need to specify some options:
cvs up -dP
will delete local copies of any deleted directories at the repository (-P) and create any directories newly created at the repository (-d). You can make this default behaviour by adding this line to ~/.cvsrc:
update -dP
(trim leading whitespace).

Yeah, I know. I did that several times before posting the message. Later in the day the same command worked fine and I assumed someone did something to fix it. Or maybe my box was afflicted by some random cosmic ray. All is OK now.
Thanks, Paul

No, I had the same problem and it didn't disappear. I had to remove the subdirectory by hand.
