Sure, like in all other GNU packages.

This is all again much different.
First, somebody who simply uses the tarball will never ever have any
use for the CVS rules in the Makefiles. Only if a sources is changed
some rules might trigger. Then it depends on whether the installer
keeps the sources in a *private* CVS archive or not. If not, there
are not CVS directories and nothing will happen. If there is a CVS
directory, it points to her/his own CVS archive and an automatical
checkin is ok.
You miss probably that the CVS files are *not* part of the tarball.
