the cvs info manual says:
But in case you want to know, the rule is that the RCS file

counterexamples:
/cvs/src/sbin/swapon/Attic/swapon.8,v
/cvs/src/distrib/vax/ramdisk/dot.commonutils,v
/cvs/src/sys/arch/mvme88k/stand/wrtvid/Makefile,v,v

/cvs/ports/x11/msttcorefonts/pkg/INSTALL,v
Yes, cvs has bugs, no surprises here. These nonconforming RCS files do
not do any harm, and they are certainly not created whenever a file is
removed.
So no big deal, I'd say.
