This begs that question of whether the GNU CVS repository could have been compromised in such a way that the diffs could be hidden. I guess that since CVS actually keeps changes to, rather than complete copies of each version, this might be hard to do.

They could have hacked the diffs so that the changes appeared to always have been present in the sources.
