 I fixed the bulk of the problems by restoring the damaged or lost files
 from directories before the month of the damage from backup (actually, the
 old sourcewre disk).  I have not made detailed manual checks of the months
 / quarters / years (depending on what goes in one directory) of the damage
 for problems (since files in those directories naturally changed for
 updates of threads etc.) - the appropriate action for those directories is
 probably to generate -n versions of the directories (as done previously in
 some cases where regeneration was wanted) from the mbox files (or from the
 qmail archives, in the case of gcc-cvs-wwwdocs which doesn't / didn't have
 FTP mbox archives).
