We seem to have found a bug with rcs.  Whenever we try to save a source file
with the suffix ".rc", corruptions occur within the comments section at the
beginning of the file.  For example, if we store this file:

/*
 *	Title:		server.rc
 *
 *	Description:	string table for DDE message items
 *
 *	Revision 0.21  91/11/20  14:16:34  alfred
 *	Initial revision
 *	
 */

...
	contents deleted
...

it comes back looking like this:

/*
 *	Title:		server.rc
 *
 *	Description:	string table for DDE message items
 *
 *	$Revision: 0.24 $
 *	$Log:	server.rc,v $
/*	Revision 0.24  91/11/20  14:35:36  alfred
/*	*** empty log message ***
/*	
 *	Revision 0.21  91/11/20  14:16:34  alfred
 *	Initial revision
 *	
 */

...
	contents deleted
...

Note the extra "/"'s !!!
Another example:

/*
 *	Title:		ui.rc
 *
 *	Description:	##DESCRIPTION
 *
 *	$Revision: 0.24 $
 *	$Log:	ui.rc,v $
#	Revision 0.23  91/11/20  14:29:51  alfred
#	*** empty log message ***
#	
#	Revision 0.21  91/11/20  14:11:30  alfred
#	Add a string table for DDE item strings
#	
...
	deleted
...
#	Revision 0.2  91/07/09  16:12:32  alfred
#	Change icon file.
#	
 *	Revision 0.1  91/07/09  14:56:51  alfred
 *	Initial revision
 *	
 */

...
	deleted
...

Different symptoms again.

It appears that ".rc" has some special meaning within rcs that I'm not aware of.
Anyone got any ideas ??

Regards,

Stuart.
