Not too convoluted at all; I already do exactly this with many upstream
CVS and SVN repositorys, using a local PRCS for my own branches. I'm
considering switching to a distributed RCS for my own branches because
it would make it easier for others to share them.

I think this probably is the best solution; it gives a reliable(?)
centralised RCS for the trunk, but allows distributed development.
