I think the only way to tell would be to write a script, and compare the
numeric revision of the symbolic tags against the numeric revision of
the branch tag.

For example, if 'cvs status -v' shows:
Existing tags:
        tag_a           (revision: 1.3.2.3)
        the_branch      (branch: 1.3.2)
        tag_b           (revision: 1.4)

then tag_a is on the branch tag_b is on the trunk.

This might have to be done on a file-by-file basis.
