I know this phenomenon. It occurs if people delete parts of the sandbox
(via "cvs release -d", but even "cvs up -P" might qualify, for example,
if you use & - modules in CVSROOT/modules).

"cvs tag" only tags the files currently in your sandbox. If you removed
files, they will not be tagged.

Because of this, "cvs rtag" (note the "r" in "rtag") is often a good
alternative.

Best regards,
   Spiro.
