"cvs tag -b branch" appears to succeed when performed in an empty directory:
$ ls -la
total 6
drwxr-xr-x 3 erics www 512 Jun 14 18:04 .
drwxr-xr-x 4 erics www 512 Jun 14 18:04 ..
drwxr-xr-x 2 erics www 512 Jun 14 18:04 CVS
$ cvs tag -b branch
cvs tag: Tagging .
$ echo $?
0
$
It would suffice if this also added "branch" to val-tags.
