cvs - how do I find out if I need a new directory without `cvs up`?

I have written a shell script to show me what files need patching without actually doing a cvs up. It's just a simple cvs stat parser.

But, it doesn't tell me if a new directory would come down with a new cvs up -d.

Is there a way to find out if I'm missing directories that would be created with the next cvs up -d?

The -n switch shows me missing directories:

cvs -n up -d

The -n switch does not actually run cvs up -d; it just shows the effects of running the command.
