I'm new to using cvs for downloading modules, so I may be doing something wrong, but using this command:

cvs -z6 -d:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal-contrib checkout -d cobalt -r DRUPAL-6--1-1 contributions/modules/cobalt

which I think should get me the stable version, is pulling down the dev version, as reported in cobalt.info.

Yes, that's how it is :). I'm not really at home with CVS either, but you will never get the correct version information from the CVS, as that is added by the packager script that creates the release archives.
