LOL!  I never tried cvs -n before.  Here was my result:

C:\Code\python>cvs -n up
CVS.EXE update: inflate: unknown compression method
CVS.EXE [update aborted]: reading from server: Input/output error
Write failed flushing stdout buffer.
write stdout: Broken pipe

A regular "cvs up" (no -n) still works fine.
