The good news: (I just reminded myself/realized that) Max Bowsher has
already implemented pretty much exactly what you want in the cvs2svn
trunk version, including noting in the commit messages any cherry-picks
that are not reflected in the repo ancestry.

The bad news: It is broken [1].  But I don't think it should be too much
work to fix it.
