I also had this in very large quantities. It comes from a few reasons.
 
1) RESTOREs. If you backup and RESTORE a project from one VSS to another, it loads it under orphaned, and under some circumstances, it fails to run properly after the restore happens. vss2svn fails to handle any RENAME on the RESTORED folder. (The restore action can rename the folder and restore it at the same time).
2) SHAREs. If a file is shared, and the parent is destroyed, any renames that happened will fail to show properly.
 
I have fixed both of these errors in my local copy of vss2svn and was planning on emailing the patches to the list. If you have it setup to run it as a perl environment, I can forward the patches when I get off work. They worked for me on my two VSS migrations.
