With SVN, vc-print-log places the cursor and displays at the end of the buffer.
With CVS, it places the cursor at the version of the visited file.  This seems
to me to be the logical thing to do.

For me, SVN behaves like you say CVS does, ie puts cursor on current
revision.

Yes, I see that now on Ubuntu.  Perhaps it's just a problem on Mac OSX.  I'll
investigate further.

I see now that I hadn't updated properly and this was related to the earlier
bug where the mode line showed the last committed revision instead of the
working revision.

So I've closed the report.
