The main problem (based on my experience making it possible to have multiple
PCL-CVS buffers) is that you need both to understand the code you're
changing and to understand how to use buffer-local variables to their best
advantage.
In the end the change to PCL-CVS was "fairly" easy, but it was delicate.
