First, a word of warning. I use Git (and sometimes even contribute
to it), and watch its mailing list; I know Mercurial only from 
documentation and a few discussions on #revctrl IRC channel. So now you 
should know which way I tend to be biased ;-)

On http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/index.cgi/UsingExtensions

   cvscommit            | Push changesets to CVS

But on the link on its wiki page we have

  I've written the cvscommit extension, but it might be outdated and
  maybe could use some structural changes, but I've used it for some
  commits.

There is no documentation for this extension, unfortunately, so I don't 
know what exactly it does.


>From listed git "equivalents"

  git-cvsexportcommit  (1)  - Export a single commit to a CVS checkout
  git-cvsserver        (1)  - A CVS server emulator for git

it looks like git-cvsexportcommit is more equivalent to hg.ext.cvscommit
Mercurial extension.

I don't know of such extension / tool
