I was hoping no one would ask me that ;-)  I'm trying to migrate from a
LOT of old legacy code, including a lot of perl4 wrappers, text database
files that do something similar to tagging a list of files for code
revisions, and a hacked up version of CVS 1.3.  I'd like to move them to
a straightforward development system with 1.10.8, and doing something
like this with modules is the best way for me to get them straightened
out in a relatively short and painless way.  Although I agree that
restructuring the repository might be better, I think that project may
be a lot more difficult then it is worth for the time being.  Hopefully
that would be a next step after cleaning up what is there.  Are there
any other problems I may run into doing something like this, as long as
the module files were well maintained when adding or removing files from
a set?

thanks,
David
