Ah, so it's just a documentation bug? 'C-h k =' in PCL-CVS (BTW, why
is it called PCL?) gives

  cvs-mode-diff is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `pcvs'.
  (cvs-mode-diff)

  Diff the selected files against the repository.
  Wrapper function that switches to a *cvs* buffer
  before calling the real function `cvs-mode-diff-1'.

It really did puzzle me that the functionality was missing. The VC
mode seems to be more user friendly though? But perhaps less flexible?
