Description

On one of my CVS repositories, cvs2svn.py (revision 6572) fails with
the following traceback:
finishing 'merged-from-openbox-2_1-2002-09-30' as tag
Traceback (most recent call last):

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get'

I can provide a copy of the repository if it would be helpful, but I
am not really sure the best way to trim it down so it still remains
useful to the developers.
