Since most of this is in upstream code how do you handle that?
In GNU Classpath we keep such code separate (in an external dir, where
there is an README explaining how to do a fresh import) and have the
rule that changes should be pushed upstream before applying/reimporting.

Which version/branch of the upstream code do you use and how do patches
flow back and forth between the projects normally?

In the case of CVS $Id's of course another option is to import them
without keyword expansion to keep divergence as small as possible.

Cheers,

Mark
