I overlooked in your original email that the file doesn't appear to have
an active vendor branch.  If that is true, there is indeed a problem.  I
still would wager that there is some kind of screwy corruption in your
repository, but it could also be a cvs2svn bug.  Please send a complete
bug report (see FAQ) so that we can investigate.
