Fix the data in the bzr repo to match the data in the CVS repo.
During the CVS imports into Bzr, there were some inconsistencies introduced (mostly that files that were deleted in CVS weren't being deleted in Bzr). So this checkin makes the bzr repo actually consistent with the CVS repo, including fixing permissions of files.

- <title>Why use a bug-tracking system?</title>
-
- <para>Those who do not use a bug-tracking system tend to rely on
- shared lists, email, spreadsheets and/or Post-It notes to monitor the
- status of defects. This procedure
- is usually error-prone and tends to cause those bugs judged least
- significant by developers to be dropped or ignored.</para>
-
- <para>Integrated defect-tracking systems make sure that nothing gets
- swept under the carpet; they provide a method of creating, storing,
- arranging and processing defect reports and enhancement requests.</para>
