    Wouldn't it be easier to have a configuration variable
    (`cvs-sort-program' or something) and have the user configure it if
    needed?

That way, each user would have to set the variable to get proper
results.  That is very very undersirable.  To make the system really
"work" means making it work without the user's having to know what
variable to set.
