Andrew,

The only code I know of that got lost is the crash-dump analysis code 
(Jürgen is the expert on it). It is a bee in my bonnet, because I 
consider it indispensable for certain kinds of problems. It was 
Sun-proprietary code, run in Hamburg.

IMHO, its reincarnation would be worth considerable effort.
