You keep the history of the file, but when restoring an old version, the
filename is the new filename. Meaning that a .cpp including a header which
was renamed that way won't be able to compile in revision previous to the
date of the renaming.

Stuff like this may work when you are just using CVS as a smart backup
system, but is really unsafe. When renaming file on sourceforge, just to a
remove/add and add a hint in the log about the renaming.

By the way, I'm currently trying to set up automatic e-mail notification on
CVS commit (going throught the syncmail procedure of SF documentation. The
doc has greatly improved since I last visited it).
