This has nothing to do with the locking problem. It sidesteps it. If
araizen (or whoever wants to do offline or more convient editing) does
a cvs up (or whatever it is with RCS), they can edit at their leisure
and then commit later. If the file has changed since they checked it
out you get to do normal merging (which is far more preferable than just
saying "no you can't edit this").

I would imagine if it uses an rcs repo it probably just uses system()
type function calls to do the access...? These could be simply replaced
with cvs equivalents...

If it is more complicated than that, I say fuck it. (And personally
I would prefer CVS to a wiki, but I've only done a *tiny* amount
of translation (some bible porn, mostly -- it's probably really bad
too since I did it a while ago) in the old CVS repo, so please
ignore me).
