I set something similiar up once.  I used the cvslock program (forgot the link,
sorry) wrapped in rsync or rdist to wrap the backup of each major module (once
each for x in $CVSROOT/*) with a read lock/unlock cycle for that section of the
tree.  You can change the granularity depending on what kind of integrity is
important to you, but this level worked for my purposes.
