Sorry, let me clarify:  being at revision 1 isn't a problem in itself.

What I meant was all that "revision 1" implies: 'log' and 'annotate'
are reset, for example.

If the ,v files are moved, those commands continue to just work.  Otherwise a
GCC hacker can only 'log' and 'annotate' back so far before being forced
to find an old checkout of the repo and repeating the work there.
