CVSup is your friend. If you are very careful, you can have
revision-controlled "sub"-repository which gets all changes from master
via cvsup, but keeps its own changes.

See this page for details:

I had this setup for awhile, (for freebsd and postgresql sources), and it 
worked fine.

Of course, you can't _preserve_ your revision history when integrating 
back into main tree (your point #3)...
