It was simpler than that: Dan created an empty directory in the GCC
     repository to switch to.

Ah!

     Googling for "gcc svn switch" took me directly to the Wiki page, which
     covers this; it's under setup:

I didn't Google, but searched the GCC list for "svn switch".  That's why
I didn't find it.

    svn switch svn+ssh://gcc.gnu.org/svn/gcc/emptydir libada

I bet that'd work.  svn would treat the directory as empty and cvs would
ignore the svn stuff.  I'll try it.  Thanks.

     I think you would need to do something a bit more complicated for
     this, using svk.  Among other things, this should let you combine
     multiple conceptual "repositories".  But I'll defer this one to our
     experts.

Note that the gcc/ada I want would be under cvs, not svn.
