Subject: bug in rlog?

| I think I've found a bug in rlog - May be is a feature... (I hope a talk
| about a rcs tool is welcome on this list.)
This is specification of RCS file. See man page rcsfile(5).
The following is definition of state attribute.
state {id};
id ::= {num} idchar {idchar | num}*
num ::= {digit | .}+
digit ::= 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9
idchar ::= any visible graphic character except special
value of state is optional.
rcs -s can not make id empty. cvs admin -s can.
cvs log will dump core. rlog display `state: (null);'.
| rlog can't handle rcs files with a dot in the state like:
| date 2000.03.14.14.25.13; author lukasg; state 0.2.1;
`0.2.1' is invalid, but `0.2.1-state' is valid.
CVS should check validity like RCS.
% rcs -s'1.2':1.1 FILE
rcs: invalid identifier `1.2'
rcs aborted
