Thanks for the hint. vc-stay-local is supposed to be a global setting, and vc-cvs-stay-local, if defined, is supposed to override it for CVS only. The problem is that currently both variables are defined via defcustom, and so vc-cvs-stay-local always overrides whatever you specify in vc-stay-local. This needs to be fixed, you are right. I'm thinking about a solution.
