I think you need to use "cvs co -kk ...". That explicitly resets the
keywords to their unexpanded form. It seems that -kb reverts to
whatever form the keyword happens to have in the RCS master file, which
is bogus because it is rewritten upon checkout anyway. So, -kk ought to
be the right option.
(-kb makes sense for binary files, because if a file happens to contain
something that looks like an expanded RCS keyword, you wouldn't want
that to be reset.)
