AFAIK, ctm (not sure about CVSup) doesn't support a rename function -
when a file is deleted into the Attic, ctm deletes the old file and
then creates a new file in the Attic (transferring the content).  So
this approach probably wouldn't solve Julian's immediate problem.

Apart from that, this approach seems significantly better than
(effectively) committing diffs to binary files.
