Curious.  I tried just now a M-: (setq vc-handle-cvs nil) RET and it
worked as expected.  I don't know why you would be having problems,
but if you still are (after four days), then I'll be glad to work at
it.

At any rate, Emacs's CVS handling should not ever set the file as
read-only.  The fact that it ever does should be considered an
undocumented feature.  I should have to track it down.

Best,
