Aha! You solved the mystery, John. Thanks. I was too sleepy last
night to read the dumpfile correctly. That exactly explains the
repository that results from the dumpfile.

Why is the dumpfile bogus? Because cvs2svn generated it, of course,
and cvs2svn is still known to have bugs regarding branches & tags. No
surprises here.
