What about "cvs diff" by date?
E.g., to see all changes between, say Jan 1, 2005 and May 31, 2005,
you can use a command like:

cvs diff -u -p -D 2005-01-01 -D 2005-05-31

To see the log messages in that period you can use:
cvs log -d "2005-01-01;2005-05-31"

I don't know if you can get the info per-commit, and I also would be
interested in finding the answer.
