Actually, this will require to kick it out from the Eclipse Platform feature that includes it.
Like it or not, EPP packages currently get the CVS plugins "for free" because they include the Eclipse Platform feature.
As far as I could see, there is no reference to CVS on the Eclipse Platform feature. http://git.eclipse.org/c/platform/eclipse.platform.releng.git/tree/features/org.eclipse.platform-feature/feature.xml
However, there Eclipse SDK feature includes it: http://git.eclipse.org/c/platform/eclipse.platform.releng.git/tree/features/org.eclipse.sdk/feature.xml#n44
At least the JEE EPP package reference the Platform feature and explitly includes CVS: http://git.eclipse.org/c/epp/org.eclipse.epp.packages.git/tree/packages/org.eclipse.epp.package.jee.feature/feature.xml#n33

So it seems to be something fixable on the EPP side only. The Eclipse SDK could stay as the Platform developers wants it to be, since it's not really a packge for end-users.
