If I just rearrange the directories in the repository without telling CVS,
will it get upset? If so, what's the cleanest way to do this?

CVS won't get upset but your developers might. If a developer has a
module checked out that you move they will not be able to check it in.
You can recover from this by editing the CVS/Repository file in every
module but this can be error prone.
I recommend that you make a copy of the repository which you can
re-arrange to your hearts content. I would write a script to do this so
that it is reproducable. Once it is arranged how you want it, get
everyone to release their workspaces and you can re-arrange the repository
and then have everyone check everything out again.
