It seems this depends more on your shell than it does cvs.
Using tcsh you need to do so:
cvs commit -m "foo\
bar"
tcsh requires an escape ('\') for each newline
withing a quote.
On bash you do:
cvs commit -m "foo
bar"
bash (GNU bash, version 2.04.11(1)-release) keeps
on reading input until it's matching end '"'

How do I run commit and give a two line message?
