CVS is awful.
Try this:
 make sure you have "everything" "backed up" esp. m3-defn-complete.pdf 
 rm -rf the local directory with m3-defn-complete.pdf (that you backed up) 
 cvs upd -dAP to get it back 
 if m3-defn-complete.pdf is there
 {
     rm m3-defn-complete.pdf 
     cvs delete m3-defn-complete.pdf 
     cvs commit m3-defn-complete.pdf 
 } 
 copy in your new m3-defn-complete.pdf 
 cvs add m3-defn-complete.pdf 
 cvs commit m3-defn-complete.pdf
