Migrating the latest pages will be easy. I know enough Perl to do that.
Migrating history would be tougher, but should still be doable. (I'd dump it
all out and write a Python script to load it into SVN via the language
bindings to the svn repository)

So, no... *if* we migrate to SubWiki or some other Wiki, then we can get the
data out of UseModWiki.
