cvs version version 1.1.1.1.2.1 of gcc/libjava/classpath/java/awt/im/InputContext.java , i.e. the sh-elf-4_1-branch head, is supposed to correspond to svn+ssh://amylaar@gcc.gnu.org/svn/gcc/branches/sh-elf-4_1-branch/libjava/classpath/java/awt/im/InputContext.java@104279 . However, every single line that was supposed to be kept from the previous version has been removed. Yes, there were a few problems of copying from "incorrect files" on branches when it came to libjava. cvs2svn only uses a heuristic, and sometimes reorders commits when it has to. There is no perfect reconstruction of a svn repo from a cvs one. It does the best it can.

This particular problem seems to be related to vendor imports done of classpath and pulling those versions back to branches.

I fixed the branches i noticed this happened on.

If you had actually emailed me, i would have given you simple instructions on how to fix it.

Simply do a recopy of libjava from the approriate tag, and all will be well.
