cvs update -r HEAD BuiltinType.H 		#Checks out the head revision.
Reapply my changes using emacs ediff
cvs commit -r 1.2 BuiltinType.H		#Forces it into 1.2
cvs admin -o1.1.1.2 BuiltinType.H		#get rid of this

Again, I have no clue as to why this occurred since all the files should 
have been checked in identically. Possibly there may have been a $Id in the 
initial file.
