The docs/comments mention the concurrent use of RCS and CVS, but I'm not
sure that anyone has ever expressed a real interest in combining SCCS
with other vc backends in this way (other than it can theoretically be
done). These days the more common use case for multiple vc backends is
probably combining a local distributed vc backend with a public CVS or
SVN repository.
