No, you're right. I wasn't thinking clearly. Speaking personally,
I wouldn't bother going to the effort of repackaging simply to avoid
a warning about CVS in source.

Perhaps; but the more usual location would be /usr/lib/cableswig,
rather than /usr/lib/CableSwig/bin.
However, the binaries in question are those of gcc-xml which you agree
should be packaged separately anyway. So the question now is more
like: can cableswig be built to use an external gcc-xml?
