I must still be doing something wrong.  Now I'm back to the original issue, 
of it just showing up as $Log$.

This is what I ran:

/Users/Shared/cvs2svn-2.4.0/cvs2svn --use-cvs --encoding=UTF-8 --default-eol=native --dumpfile=cvs2svn-dump /tmp/HIServices

and this is one of the differences.

diff -r HIServices/CoreDrag.subproj/DragInterface.c HIServices-svn/CoreDrag.subproj/DragInterface.c
12c12
<               $Log: DragInterface.c,v $
---
>               $Log$


Actually, it's slightly better, since I'm not missing the last checkin comment.
But my goal of course is to be able to diff TOT CVS and TOT svn checkout and
have them be the same.

One other file that seems to be diffing wrong is a .lisp file, but maybe
that should be binary.. it seems like I'm getting the entire file shown
on the svn end of the diff.  This one is only in a Tests folder so is possibly
ignorable.
