Fixing a repository with missing revisions?

Greetings,

Unfortunately, my repository has been corrupted. I created an
original repository with cvs2svn in fsfs format. I then put it up on
machine A for a little while and let people test it and make junk
commits. Call that the 'junk' version of the repository. It worked
fine, so I put the 'original' repository on a completely different
machine (machine B). People made many commits, resulting in a
'production' repository.

Then something unfortunate happened. Machine B was rsynced with
Machine A. So now the 'production' machine has some of the 'junk'
revisions. Even worse, people made commits into this
'production-junk' machine.

This actually happened to two different repositories. For the first
repository, the revision numbers are

1-2483: original
2484-2486: production-junk (note that this overwrote the
                                        production revisions already commited)
2487-2497: production
2498: production-junk

For the second repository, the revision numbers are

1-494: original
495: junk (this is the only problem revision in this repo)
496-507: production-junk

So my question is, is there a way to recover some of the production
revisions? I understand that fsfs uses skip-deltas, but is that on
per-file basis?

Thanks,
Walter Landry
