I cam across the same problem and had no clue what the hack the problem was! I 
dug deep into the gory details of the admin directory and finally commented 
out one line in the cvs.sh:

-------------------8<----------------------------------------------------------------
for i in `ls -1 po/*.pot 2>/dev/null | sed -e "s#po/##"`; do
  egrep -v '^#([^:]|$)' po/$i | egrep '^.*[^ ]+.*$' | grep -v "\"POT-Creation" 
> po.backup/$i
  cp po/$i po.backup/backup_$i
  touch -r po/$i po.backup/backup_$i
#MW: added following line
  echo "Removing po/$i"
#MW: Commented out following line
#  rm po/$i
done
------------------->8----------------------------------------------------------------

I have no idea what the intention of the line is and why it once worked. But 
without this line I can at least built my project successfully!

If anybody can really solve the problem (and not only show a workaround) I am 
heavily interested!
