Just the redirect idea: WinCVS (www.wincvs.org) uses some method of
embedding CVS inside Windows application (IIRC they even separate CVS
access methods into some DLL). The application is open source, maybe
there is some idea to borrow? 

Warning: to say the truth, I have never read WinCVS sources. But I used
WinCVS ;-)
