Can't Synch w/ CVS : "...not a child..."

I some how have ended up in a bad state with a project that was working like a champ for months talking to CVS.
I now get errors that prevents the Synchronize with Repository from succeeding. What happens is there is at least one file that I get the following:
Resource <file> is not a child of <project>
This file changes over time and is usually in my build output which shouldn't be synching at all anyway.
I have tried several things and nothing seems to work. Refreshing, removing the file by hand, etc.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
TIA,
Phil

Is there a CVS folder in the directory of the file?

yup, there is. Don't know how CVS dirs are ending up in my build dir though.
