Here is one message about the script:
  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-cvs/2000-11/msg00188.html

There is still a copy here:
  https://www.cvshome.org/cyclic/cvs/dev-pvcs_to_rcs.pl

Or, you could try using the web.archive.org version...

  
http://web.archive.org/web/20031015202851/http://pages.prodigy.net/dlmart/pvcs2cvs.pl

as that URL seems to work for me.

I have no idea.

        Good luck,
