... The -k option is only for 'add' and 'update' etc.
The default with the command-line client is to do ASCII and you need to explicitly do 'cvs add -kb' for images, and jar files, etc....
Note also that the binary -kb flag is set automatically when adding certain file types, based on patterns defined in CVSROOT/cvswrappers (which we cannot change, belongs to the cvsadmin group).
