In document cvs.texinfo:
    > @node admin options
    ...
    > @item -n@var{name}[:[@var{rev}]]
    ...
    > this contrasts with @samp{cvs admin -n@var{name}:$} which
    > associates @var{name} with the revision numbers
    > extracted from keyword strings in the corresponding
    > working files.

I tried.
    | % cvs admin -n'FOO:$'"
    | cvs server: Administrating .
    | RCS file: /var/tmp/repo/bar/file1,v
    | cvs [server aborted]: tag `$' must start with a letter
    | %

In my experiment,
RCS 5.7 can, but RCS in CVS don't have this feature.

This is a documentation bug, or an implementation bug.
