Bug Description

While converting a repository, the importer bailed with:

Failed while processing: Patchset(1511, HEAD, abuvarp, 2007/12/23 01:54:11)
Processed 1510 patches (1510 new, 0 existing) on 11 branches (1 tags) in 562.5s (2.68 patch/s)
bzr: ERROR: co did not return successfully. return code: 1 for command co -M -p -r1.1 /path/to/Attic/file..h,v
Error: co: /path/to/Attic/file..h,v:6: unknown expand mode kkv
co aborted

http://www.network-theory.co.uk/docs/cvsmanual/Substitutionmodes.html describes the various keyword expand modes. kkv is essentially a default that could be
treated simply as if no special expand mode was selected.

In this case, the work around was as simple as editing (gasp) the repository
file and removing the @kkv@ marker frmo the file header. Even though the repository was huge, there was only one instance of this expansion mode.

The importer really should not have to bail on this issue. It should be able
just ignore it.
