Read the manpage - In a nutshell:

upgrade         Deprecated
safe-upgrade    Upgrade listed/all packages to newest version, don't
                remove packages


"don't remove packages"

That's why OP is getting the failure. cvs and cvsnt conflict, butsafe-upgrade won't remove either one of them, so fails nicely.

full-upgrade    Do whatever actions it takes to upgrade packages to
                their latest version
