  Did you try my (pure-perl) vatinat ``RefineCVS''?
  
  http://lev.serebryakov.spb.ru/refinecvs/refinecvs-0.76.783.tar.gz

  But, please, read documentation carefully before reporting bugs --
  many errors could be avoided with command-line options, sctipy is
  paranoid by default.

  Some parts of FreeBSD repository could not be converted, because
  contains revisions like 1.2.1 and other `I don't know what I should
  think about this' errors. If you have some good ideas -- let me know
  :)
