Are you using FreeBSD locally to do these checkouts?  It sounds like
cvs isn't expanding $FreeBSD$ on your local machine.  See, when
someone checks in a file, it gets checked in with the *old* $FreeBSD$
line; cvs is supposed to update it on checkout.  That last bit isn't
happening in your case for some reason.  Since $FreeBSD$ (well, all
custom keywords) are a FreeBSD extension, trying to use another system
will give the results you're seeing.
