 Well it seems like most of your ,v files contains tags refering to version 1 
 and yet the first version in the files is 1.1
 So to fix for parsecvs ( and maybe for viewcvs) i think you need to fix
 all symbols at 'top of file' for all ,v files. Change from v1 to v1.1
 with something like sed ',/@#/s/:1*$/:1.1/;,/@#/s/:1;*$/:1.1;/'
