Hmmm... I still think these are useful because they provide concrete
information outside of CVS. I haven't used them on gnujaxp, but I
have consulted them many times on other projects.
However, if this is stopping you importing them safely I would
consider removing them.

I don't know how you're doing your import but I would have thought a
transition layer was basically just:
cat source.java |
grep -v -e '\$\(id\|author\|date\|....\).*$' > source.java
But anyway... let's see the patch.
