Hmm. monotone cvs_pull explicitely does a recursive co [-r9999] to get
the directory for every referred module and notes the result. Then it
asks for every revision (rlog) and tries to file the files correctly.

I could not come up with a less error prone procedure to get a list of
both active and dead files.
