Cvs doesn't have this "feature" built in. You can do it manually this way:

        cvs co -p -r 1.1 abc.c > abc.c.1
        cvs co -p -r 1.2 abc.c > abc.c.2
        cvs co -p -r 1.3 abc.c > abc.c.3
        cvs co -p -r 1.4 abc.c > abc.c.4
        cvs co -p -r 1.5 abc.c > abc.c.5

But then, cvs has no recollection of those abc.c.* files so you won't be 
able to do any cvs operations on them.
