I've worked on CVS code, RCS has not been a part of CVS since version 1.9
(mostly) and 1.10 (completely). There are a number of features implemented
within the ,v files now that are not understood by a bare implementation of
RCS
(but RCS is kind enough to ignore them).
Perforce similarly subsumed the functionality of RCS a while back...
