RCS encourages one to put its files in a directory named RCS -
otherwise, they clutter up the original directory with near-matches for
every controlled file.

Prefixing the directory with a dot seems like a good plan.  Somehow, I
doubt the CVS community would be open to that change.  I suspect the
FSF's apparent decision to reject any change to RCS out of hand on the
basis that the concept of people wanting non-collaborative revision
control boggles their minds will apply here as well.

Given the contents of README.Debian, it would seem to me that the more
appropriate fix, if one were going to be applied, would be to add the
exact file names 'CVS' and 'RCS' to the list of excluded files.
However, as both of these are admittedly deprecated version control
systems, I'm guessing that won't happen either.
