Using ANYTHING on top of the file system ads an other layer of something
that might fail. This is obvious.

Any solution has its limitation and using the file system for anything more
then basic backup will create huge problems: how do you organize folders if
you want to have all of the last 10 versions of any given file? How about
doing the same in a multi-user environment? How about providing check-in and
check-out functionality?

Besides all of this, a CVS system is not used for disaster recovery (file
system failing, hd failing etc). It is usually used for managing team
development and for it's ability to provide version control.
