Of course, this doesn't necessarily mean that that can't be fixed, but 
any archive file that took advantage of it would no longer work quite 
correctly with old versions of CVS and maybe RCS.

I also suspect that there will be at least some administrators that 
would rather we set at least the commit timestamps securely in 
client/server mode.
