Good man. :-)

What I'd do (hmm, actually, what I /do/ do :-) :

* import the fsck.com sources unmodified into your repository
* commit your local hacks to the SAME files (not local/*)
* check the whole lot out to /usr/local/rt2

Then when you grab the latest RT sources, import them untouched
onto the vendor branch, and do any required merging back to your
local branch. This will preserve your changes ready for you to
check out again. :-)

CVS is magic for stuff like this.
