[9fans] vacchain

[Steve Simon]

There was a script called vacchain written by russ which given
a venti score from fossil/last it would read back to find scores
for previous dumps.

This could be very handy if you have a damaged fossil and want to restore
from a dump before the last one. Currently my disks are working fine but
I can see a day will come when I might need such a tool.

Has anyone got a version of this script updated to the new venti?
I tried a quick hack but it doesn't seem quite as straightforward
as I hoped.
