Been there, done that,
cvs up -r <revision to revert to> some.spec ; mv some.spec some.spec.tmp ; \
cvs up -A some.spec ; mv some.spec.tmp some.spec ; cvs ci some.spec
Not that hard.

You ("svn fans" ;) say [1] and then you say it's impossible to have
changelog in files (no $Log$ impleneted in svn). For me it's pointless to
have [1] functionality without being able to see the logs. So gain from
[1] is eliminated by the lack of log (I'm not able to know what to diff).
