Well in answer to myself parsecvs does get confused. In an example
failed to import file:

Load:                          third-party/libxml/runtest.c,v   8207 of 79070
/export/git/master.cvs/third-party/libxml/runtest.c,v spliced:
	 1.1.1.1
	 1.1
Sorted heads for /export/git/master.cvs/third-party/libxml/runtest.c,v
	master 1.1
	master > BRANCH-3-5-branch 1.1.1.1.0.2
	master > BRANCH-3-5-16-branch 1.1.1.1.0.4
building branches for /export/git/master.cvs/third-party/libxml/runtest.c,v
file sha1: b694d565caf10fedbc7566f2bf15b893c57d5a19
file sha1: b694d565caf10fedbc7566f2bf15b893c57d5a19
file has 2 revisions

An lo, looking at the branches mentioned these missing files are
there. Trouble is the files should be in a number of branches, looking
at the ,v file in question:

I'm not sure why parsecvs got this wrong, I'm digging through it but
I'm a little fuzzy where lex/bison/whatever is involved. I notice
looking at the log for some of the files that did make it that the CVS
revisions for all the branches have a .0.[something] suffix which the
missing branches in this case don't have. However CVS is very sure the
file exists in these other branches.

Could this be something to do with explicit branches and sticky branch
tags? Or just a straight bug in parsecvs?
