The issue there is that cvs2svn doesn't / didn't at the time support 
detecting moves, so moves from before the conversion to SVN aren't 
represented as such.

People have talked about wanting to move files to various new 
subdirectories of the gcc directory, rather than having so many files all 
at the same directory level.  I suggest that the time of moving a file to 
such a new subdirectory would be an appropriate time also to rename it to 
use .cc, rather than having two separate moves.
