I suppose that the file is not technically corrupt; it merely contains
no revisions. This is the *complete* content of icons.rc,v:

head ;
access ;
symbols ;
locks ; strict;
comment @ * @;

desc

I'm not sure how this could happen with CVS. With RCS, this is
what you'd get if you do "rcs -i", and then never add any revisions.
Perhaps CVS creates files with "rcs -i" (this would not be too
surprising). Suppose, further, that CVS might be somehow interrupted
after creating the file but before adding the initial revision.
That might leave the file in this state. I'm only guessing, though.
