The reason is that after checking out kdepim the permissions of 
Makefile.am.in (and all other files in kdepim/) are 0444, i. e. 
Makefile.am.in is write-protected. cvs.sh now simply copies 
Makefile.am.in to Makefile.am and then tries to append a line. 
Obviously this fails because of the missing write permissions. I don't 
know why Makefile.am.in in CVS doesn't have write permissions but a 
'chmod u+w Makefile.am' directly after the 'cp Makefile.am.in 
Makefile.am' in kde-common/admin/cvs.sh fixes this problem.

Regards,
Ingo
