I don't have this problem. I just do C-x C-q and the file is
editable. Do C-x C-q again and the file is checked in and is
read-only.

I haven't seen this problem. I wonder if RCS is confused
by the ..rcs/RCS structure in your archive directory. It expects
to find archive files in a subdirectory named rcs. I don't know
whether case is important.
