Which is what I am doing all the time now :-) I find -kk fine to deal
with these comparison issues. It would make my life harder when 
these numbers would disappear here but not internally in ACT.

Especially with the autogenerated files we have here, it is
useful to know what the versions of the input files were.
This also makes it easy to relate tarred up files back to their
versions in CVS.  Removing the revision numbers would mean quite 
a bit of work in changing all scripts and utilities that rely on them. 

As currently I'm the one most busy with doing merges, I'd like to
keep things as is for now. Sounds fair?
