See head/usr.bin/patch/inp.c lines 166 to 240 for details.

It seems like maybe this question should have been answered before rcs was removed, instead of after? (I don't know whether I would have expected you to be able to find every use of rcs, everywhere, prior to removing it, but this is what public declaration of intent/discussions help with.)
