Greg Stein in currently in process of writing SWIG bindings for
libsvn_fs. When these are done, he has a python script (in progress)
which deduce commits by directly parsing the RCS files in a CVS
repository; this script will read data from RCS and make commits to
libsvn_fs via the SWIG bindings.

So, no client apps are going to be used -- it's going to be a direct
repository-to-repository data-moving program. You can see his work in
the source tree, in 'tools/cvs2svn/cvs2svn.py' and in
'subversion/bindings/README'.
