You can always set `vc-cvs-global-switches' to nil in your .emacs. The
situation I'm trying to fix is precisely the one where the user is not
using local configs (i.e., emacs -Q) and there are .cvsrc entries
which conflict with Emacs defaults (as it happened with my "diff -u2"
and the "-c" default of VC).

So my proposed fix does not incommode you, other than forcing you to
add an entry to your .emacs file *once*, while the default requires
the user to remember doing "M-x set-variable vc-cvs-global-switches
RET nil RET" *every time* he starts Emacs without loading .emacs.
