I guess you tried to use the VC commands in the log view, and indeed
they do not work.  You need to use the PCL-CVS commands instead if the
log view comes from PCL-CVS.  The relevant prefix is C-x c, so C-x c =
will do a diff (IIRC there's a = shortcut for it).  Sadly, PCL-CVS does
not offer annotate, so that won't help you if you want to annotate
the revision (tho you can do C-x c o to open the revision and then C-x
v g to annotate it).
