Just out of curiosity, why?  The CVS repository contains an entire
progression of EGCS source trees, from the time the project was
started, until now.  Anyone wanting to start with the most recent
tagged source tree, or any intermediate source tree, can just do
merging work directly from that by checking out a copy with the
appropriate tag and ignore any changes after that date.
