Two of the sanity checks I use after merging a file are 'cvs diff
-rbsd_44_lite' and 'cvs diff -rbsd_44_lite_2' to see eveything that
has changed in a file relative to Lite and Lite2.  So unless I
applied the merge changes to a checked out -current tree, I would
not be able to do these checks since a -current imported tree will
not have the Lite and Lite2 tags.

I also do lots of 'cvs log', 'cvs diff -rrev -rrev+1', and now 'cvs annotate'.
With some inconvenience, one could do these on a checked-out -current
tree, so the argument to have full history in the lite2 tree is
not so strong there.

Hmm, I think we can still import -current onto the vendor branch
even with full history.  We certainly need to tag the tree
right after the initial import.  Peter?
