[p4] RCS keywords

[Robert Cowham]

Fine but don't forget that change is when *that* file last changed (which
you can derive from its $Id$), rather than the last changelist for any file
in the project.

What I do for tools such as Vsstop4 scripts is to have keywords in the
changelog.txt file of which I do submit a new version for every "release".
