Which version of CVS are you using?
The reason I ask is that in the Changes from 1.11.15 to 1.11.16 we see: 
* The cvs.1 man page is now generated automatically 
from a section of the CVS Manual.

I would hope we are generating at least part[1] of the info pages from the
same source.

[1] as info pages usually contain MORE than the man page they should at
least contain the same info as the man page too.
