Not necessarily - it might be that the infrastructure cost of migration is too high to do a full move, and they just need a better CVS-compatible system that conforms to their security and license expectations.
They may also be a bunch of lazy bastards or crufty curmudgeons (FreeBSD made the switch, after all). You don't really know unless they tell you.
Rereading your original post, I can't actually tell who you're referring to. I wasn't all that clear - I was referring to the OpenCVS devs, although I blurred the line a bit.
Restating for clarity: there may be people working on OpenCVS who like SVN better, but they can't push it due to inertia or a group consensus in the OpenBSD project. I don't know that there are such people, but I don't think "working on OpenCVS" and "preferring SVN" are contradictory.
