Ahhhh, I think I see.  So technically the vcs rm command should just
generate a patch to remove the current content of the file (and the file
itself), and if that differs from the patch required to remove the last
_versioned_ copy of the file, you have a potential data loss situation
and it will refuse to proceed unless forced.

... Right ....?

Anyway, I could live with that. :-)
