It's not too hard to do.  The WinCVS uninstall can look through the sub-keys
of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
and find the entry for CVSNT.  That UninstallString sub-key will be the
command to uninstall CVSNT.  This is basically what the Add/Remove Program
options does.  You can adjust the options on the command line to make the
MSI uninstall UI-less.
