There is nothing left in src/gnu/lib/libg++ in the source tree.

Waiting a few days won't fix stuff.
I can't quite figure out what's going on with your cvs... Apparently it tries
to create an admi file under src/gnu/lib/libg++/CVS, and complains that
this file is already there.

Did you by chance run a cvs update which aborted a few days ago ?

I think your tree is flaky. A simple way around this would be to rm
src/gnu/lib/libg++ before running a cvs update -AdP, which will hopefully
complete alright.
