Have you tried using multiple checkouts?

cvs -d :sspi:cvsserver:/some-repos co Project1A
cvs -d :sspi:cvsserver:/some-other-repos co -d Project1A\MyUtils MyUtils

Or something like that anyway.  Doesn't work within Tortoise, but I *think*
I've done it with the command line before.

It's clearly best to just merge the repositories, but this might be a
band-aid to use on some while you migrate others.
