I can't comment on the lintpkgsrc issue, but checking out pkgsrc-wip to
a subdirectory of pkgsrc should work fine:

$ cvs -d $NETBSD_CVSROOT co -PA pkgsrc
[...]
$ cd pkgsrc
$ echo wip >>.cvsignore
$ cvs -d $PKGSRCWIP_CVSROOT co -PA wip
[...]

After this you don't run `cvs checkout' anymore, but `cvs update'
instead...

What does `printenv CVSROOT' print?
