No, I don't think you did do it correctly.

What you have to do is, supposing foo is the dir to be removed:

 cd foo
 cvs rm -f *
 cvs commit -m 'removing obsolete files'
 cd ..
 cvs update -P # prune empty dirs

In fact, there really isn't any such thing as an entry for a directory
in CVS.  Only files.  So just delete all the files and don't worry
about the dirs (although you might want the makefile to conditionally
create the dir).
