I've never tried this, but I bet it's possible to get cvs2svn to munge
the files.

 

cvs2svn reads RCS files without problems. We converted dozens of projects from PVCS to Subversion by first running a home-grown script that converted each file to RCS format. Then we ran cvs2svn on the RCS files.

When I run cvs2svn I get three directories created. Branches, Tags and Trunk and the RCS fromat is imported, but it is listed both under tags and trunk... can I prevent the creation of the three directories, braches, tags and trunk... they are not in the original RCS data?
