RCS 5.5 is available from the Purdue NeXT archives as part of the CVS
(Concurrent Version System) package.  Binary diffs are supported with the
inclusion of a new version of diff, so NIB files, for instance, can be placed
under version control.

I'm not a version control expert and don't know what the improvements are in
RCS 5.6 vs. 5.5, but CVS seems like an improvement over RCS since concurrent
file check-outs are permitted.
