Jack,
I found this information on binary files and symlinks.

L file
      The file is a symbolic link; cvs import ignores symbolic links. 
People periodically suggest that this behavior should be changed, but if 
there is a consensus on what it should be changed to, it doesn't seem to be 
apparent. (Various options in the `modules' file can be used to recreate 
symbolic links on checkout, update, etc.; see section C.1 The modules file.)
