If you mean, /usr/bin/cvs.. then you should be aware that there is an
identical version in ports/devel/cvs.  Having a single version in
ports has the advantage that the same bug fixes are available to all
branches of FreeBSD.  A number of folks have expressed a desire to see
the transition from src to ports be as seamless and painless as
possible.

I think its a fairly safe bet that it'll happen for FreeBSD-10.
