You may well be onto something:

prdqry:/home/sweatje/cvs/distfcst> rlog .prod_dir,v
rlog error, line 2: Missing access list
rlog aborted

Is there a problem doing rcs commands on hidden files?

also I notice the permissions are different on that file:
> ll -a

Apart from "reasonably modern", there's no minimum version.
The output from the rcs utilities should be fairly uniform,
but there may be quirks that cause the parser to fail.

Also, does only one file fail?  Could you run rlog on that
file and see what the output is and why it's different from
the rest?
