If cvsps/git-cvsimport is used for the pike repo then I strongly suggest using my patched tools, but I got the impression that other tools are used since it's based on Comstedts svn export, right?
It is, but I've been meaning to run a script checking out every CVS revision in the past, and comparing it with what I have.
A good plan. By the way, the svn repository is currently a bit out of date due to the CVS rsync on eureka not working, but I think it should be fine to use what exists now, and pull all changesets after that directly from CVS. If not, just let me know and I'll resync the svn repo (assuming the rsync functionality has been reestablished).
