With advice from Chris Ball and #postgresql, it proved possible to use
the filesystem backup, start up another instance of the database, and
dump the permission, session, and session_attribute tables.

However, I have not loaded these dumps into the production
database, because I don't see a need, and most of the data is spam;
roughly 5500 accounts, with no easy way to validate.

Thanks to the people who have re-registered.  For those that had
specific permissions, I've added back the permissions you had.
