That's bogus.. it seems to just put it up anyway if you don't put a
drive letter (eg. it does the same for the cvsnt main repository which
does not have a repository prefix).

It does seem to almost work from my (limited) testing anyway if you
ignore the warnings... unfortunately the WSAD/Eclipse CVS engine is
extremely fragile (it relies on the exact text from the server being
identical to a CVS 1.11.x server, otherwise it starts chucking random
errors at you) so whether you use a repository prefix or not it'll
break periodically - personally I'd stick to Tortoise...
