Has anyone written import support for rcs repos?
(I've a few config hierarchies using RCS I'd like to convert.)

Just migrate to CVS first, and then use "git cvsimport".
CVS obviously *uses* RCS as the individual file format, so migrating a set
of RCS files to CVS really is pretty damn trivial. It's basically just
copying the RCS *,v files over to the appropriate CVSROOT directory
structure and adding some Entries files. I think CVS even comes with a
"rcs-to-cvs" conversion script.
Yeah, just checked: google for "rcs-to-cvs.sh"
(I don't know how well it works, but I can't imagine that it won't do a
good job. CVS really largely is "RCS with some scripts around it")
