It works in BitKeeper just fine :)  Not that that helps you much, but
at least you know there is a (commercial) option that works...

We support many of the RCS keywords too, but not $Log$, I always thought
that was a bit over the top.  Here's our list if you care.

NAME
       bk keywords - list of RCS and SCCS keywords

DESCRIPTION
       BitKeeper  supports both the standard SCCS keywords, as well as most of
       the RCS keywords. In addition, there  are  several  keywords  that  are
       unique to BitKeeper.

       Note:  All  of the revision-oriented keywords (e.g. %I%) are useless in
       BitKeeper since they may change as a  result  of  a  re-synchronization
       that  causes  a  branch creation.  Use the %K% keyword when you need an
       identifier that is unique to a specific revision-level of a  file.  The
       %K% keyword is useful when tracking customer bugs. For example, a tech-
       nician might ask the end-user to run the what command on an  executable
       to  check  the  versions of the components that make up a program.  The
       person doing troubleshooting can then use the %K% keyword to track down
       the specific source files that make up the executable.

       Note: SCCS keyword expansion can cause problems in printf-like strings.
       To deal with unwanted keyword expansion, BitKeeper can be given options
       to expand only the first keyword found. See bk help admin.

SCCS KEYWORDS
            %A%  Shorthand notation for an ID line with data for what(1):

            %...@%  u...@host

RCS KEYWORDS
       The  following  is  the subset of RCS keywords that BitKeeper supports.
       The RCS keywords are only expanded if the RCS flag is turned  on.   See
       bk help admin.
