As far as doing this operation without 'cvs add' well, you could attach

additional manual effort. Or, am I just not understanding you?
Why would not work? Indeed, I think it's the most appropriate way to
proceed
in such cases. I'm doing this *always*, I never touch the CVS
repository before
the actual commit, I never create dirs in advance.
To be clear: since you don't want to alter CVS *before* an approval to
commit,
I think the most appropriate way to proceed, in such cases is just that
recommended
in the linux kernel, for instance: you copy the entire libstdc++-v3
tree, create a
-rN diff and post it to the list.
I don't think it's appropriate suggesting to our contributors to alter
the CVS
repository only for the purpose of creating diffs to post... *before*
the real
approval of the work!!!
