does this work for your definition of man page?

http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewcvs/*checkout*/ccvs/contrib/cvs_acls.html?root=cvs

also I believe if you `pod2text cvs_acls.pl|less` you get essentially a man 
page, after you the current rev from here:
http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewcvs/*checkout*/ccvs/contrib/cvs_acls.pl?root=cvs
the rev of cvs_acl in /usr/share/cvs/contrib/cvs_acls on an FC3 system is a 
bit out of date. or you could less /usr/share/cvs/contrib/cvs_acls and read 
the directions in there, but I think Peter Connolly's version (from the 
website) is the one you probably want to use.

latest versions can be found from:
