It looks like the data loss extends beyond 8/14.  Bug 81840
was created Sunday afternoon but is not in the database:

   https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-bugs/2017-08/msg01303.html

(Strangely, 81841 is there, as is 81839.)

Is there a plan to restore the lost data somehow or should
we try to do that ourselves for the bugs we know about?
