This all is much to complicate and resource hungry. Simply dump the raw article (plus meta info) into a CVS system and let the user fetch the files with a simple "cvs up". And a simple shell script (awk/sed/python) can fetch the local CVS files into the database.
Your proposal sounds very interesting to me. But did I get the point right that you also want CVS as a way for writing to the database? That would be a great thing for offline editing, but makes mass vandalism possible. Simply fill in random crap in your local files, say "cvs commit" and voilá, you've ruined a whole wiki...
