Yes there is in RCS at least.  Look at the -N and -n
options to the rcs command.  It's then possible to check
out a version of a file by specifying its symbolic name.

The only thing that you'd need to do is make a short shell
script which looped through all the files, checking out the
version specified by the symolic name of each file.
