I'd missed that. It does print quite a lot of cruft though, including the 
names of temp files that CVS uses..

I've just given cvs rdiff -kk -s -rRev1 -rRev2 Module a try (CVS 1.11.18),
and it appears -kk is actually supported, but is undocumented with cvs -H
rdiff or in Cederqvist. This gives a nice consise list of changed files. 

Cheers
