Regenerating the deltas is pretty much impossible, since most people have
managed to get past the problem.  However, I have faked up a CTM delta that
can be inserted between 2715 and 2716 to fix the problem for those people
(like me) who were missing CVSROOT/val-tags, and might want to start over
from scratch (due to bad disks or sudden finger trouble).

I call it 'cvs-cur.2716+val-tags.hack' so that it sorts between
cvs-cur.2715.gz and cvs-cur.2716.gz.  Any similar sorting name will do.

Voila!  Your (A) scenario is fulfilled.
