Not to me - looks like you are trying to defeat the version control
system.  

That history may just look like rubbish today, but one day it'll be
important, why not:
* delete (files)
* cvs remove (files)
* cvs rtag (module)
* (create files)
* cvs add (files)
* cvs commit -m "" (files)

Regards,


Arthur
