That's it! Some tar programs limit the length of the file names. It
seems that the tar used by biomoby.org is one of them (yes, it is, I have
just checked it). So you are not getting correct file names. I will report
it to the CVS maintainer, but your solution is clear - use please a
regular CVS:

Are you on Unix or windows? On Unix you should have already a 'cvs'
command line client available (if not, use your package manager - it can
install it for you easily - its name depends on the Linux distribution you
are using; which one it is?). On Windows, I recommend to use TortoiseCVS
(or WinCVS).
On Unix, do as described
here: http://biomoby.open-bio.org/CVS_CONTENT/moby-live/Java/docs/CVS.html.
Cheers,
Martin
