That's redundant.. it'll produce a really odd entries file (which should 
normally be coped with but may be server dependent).

That's not what happens for me at all... what version are you using?

D:\t>cvs ver
Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.5.01 (Travis) Build 1969 
(client/server)

D:\t>cvs up -A
...
D:\t>cvs add -r test_branch test.txt
cvs add: scheduling file `test1.txt' for addition on branch `test_branch'
cvs add: use 'cvs commit' to add this file permanently

D:\t>cvs commit -m "add to branch" test.txt
RCS file: d:\repo/test/test.txt,v
done
Checking in test.txt;
d:\repo/foo/test.txt,v  <--  test1.txt
new revision: 1.1.2.1; previous revision: 1.1
