[Zope-Coders] removing RCS ids causes error on startup

[Steve Alexander]

I used this from the ZopeCVS FAQ to update my sandbox branch with the HEAD.

----
Note that you can also use the -kk option with cvs update to avoid 
spurious conflict messages (when the only things that conflict are the 
RCS expansions) when you are performing merges:

cvs update -kk -d -j brian-foo-branch
----

However, I find that ZServer/medusa/resolver.py won't start up, because 
of this:

RCS_ID =  '$Id$'

...

VERSION = string.split(RCS_ID)[2]


When I fix that (by sticking a valid RCS id in), I'm getting core dumps 
all of a sudden... I don't know whether removing RCS ids could cause 
that though, or whether it is something else I'm doing, or something 
wrong with the trunk.
