It would be just as safe to run the

cvs admin -kb [filename]
cvs upd -kb [filename]

command. The RCS file contains the unexpanded/unchanged keyword strings
like $Id$, so if there has been no new checkins of those files in text
mode, this command would work. Otherwise, just copy in the newest
version of the binary files you know isn’t crippled.
