I think you're looking for:

cvs -z3 update -j [tag] .

This would merge changes from what you have to 
the specified tag.  Perform the binary build, then 

cvs -z3 update -j HEAD

to restore to the head revision.  You should check 
the cvs docs, though instead of relying on what I
vaguely recall... The Per Cederquist manual is 
quite good.  I recommend reading the chapter on 
branches and merging a couple dozen times.
