this seems completely wrong to me.
I think it should be expanded on input so that the version
in the repository has teh new string on it already..
other wise I get diffs when I compare the same file from different 
mirrors.

e.g.
 $FreeBSD: mirrored/freebsd/src/etc/csh.cshrc,v 1.3 1999/08/27 23:23:40

now we put the mirror into mirrored/freebsd
in out tree but I guarantee that anything I compare it with will
not have that.. in addition it says YUO checked it in there
which is misleading as you didn't have a 'mirrored/freebsd'
directory I'm sure..
