IIRC you can fix this with 
cvs admin -kb filename

If you have control over the CVSROOT directory you can add a file name pattern 
to the file cvswrappers in order to avoid this problem for future additions. 
For example:

*.gif -k 'b'
*.png -k 'b'
*.jpg -k 'b'

With these settings those popular image types will be considered binary 
by default.  This kicks in when you "cvs add" the files, so not 
retroactively.

HTH,
Christian.
