Done the changes by putting the variable in vc-hooks.el with better
documentation. I have used this patch and has worked with no issues so
far. I request the patch to be reviewed and put into CVS head (so that
it gets tested well by the Emacs developer community).
 The attached patch is as on 8th Sept 2004. I have taken the latest
changes to vc-arch.el by Stefan.

with best regards,
