I struggled with this one for a while recently and finally got it to work.
One reason this was so hard to figure out was that the error message
doesn't print on the failed page because of the quoting. If you put the
[subject] outside the [if] you see the error message. Here is the work
around I came up with:

[set [L]Place Order![/L]]
mv_todo=submit
[if value fax_order]
[perl value config]
$Safe{value}->{mv_cyber_mode} = "";
$Safe{config}->{CyberCash} = 0;
return '';
[/perl]
[else]
[if config CyberCash]
mv_cyber_mode=__CYBER_MODE__
[/if]
[/else]
[/if]
[/set]

You then should do a the following on your receipt page so that CyberCash
will work if they checkout again.

[perl value config]
$Safe{config}->{CyberCash} = 1;
return '';
[/perl]

There is undoubtly a better way to do this. Perhaps a small change to the
Minivend code would allow this to be done by setting mv_payment and
mv_cyber_mode. In the function do_process() in the minivend program there
is the following code for CyberCash:

                elsif($VEnd::Cfg->{CyberCash} and defined
$CGI::values{mv_cyber_mode}) {
                        $status = cyber_charge();
                        unless($status) {
                                display_special_page(
                                        find_special_page('failed'),
                                        $Vend::Session->{cybercash_error}
                                );
                                put_session();
                                return;
                        }
                }

I think there could be an additional check in this elsif to see if
mv_payment is set to Credit Card and only attempt to do a CyberCash
transaction if it is. I also don't know if this logic is the same in MV4.0
