[cvsnt] RCS integrity check

Can anyone recommend a tool to verify RCS integrity of CVS ,v files?

We have a few "unexpected EOF" errors reported by viewcvs, but the python backtrack doesn't tell us where in the file the problem is.
Since cvs checks out the files no problem, I have to think this is a minor syntax error in the history information somewhere that can be corrected if I know the line #. I hate to lose all the history but deleting/re-adding the files as rev 1.1

That said, it would be handy to periodically run an integrity-check of entire repositories from time to time.
