Hi Robin, 

I was looking at your patch and had to make some notes for myself to 'unwrap'
the relationships for myself. If my tests are correct, your script changes
every record with childs into a serial AND a set. Most of the time those are 2
different things and it perhaps depends on what the library intended to do.
After running your script my parent records show both links: show volumes and
show analytics. When using Usecontrolnumber those will be the same (see bug
7609). Perhaps it would make sense to decide to either make the records a set
or a serial and mark the child records correspondingly:

I. Sets and volumes

Set record: leader pos 19 = a = Set
(http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bdleader.html)
A set record will show a link to the volumes.
Link: search for 001 of set record in $w of child records (rcn index).

Volume record: leader pos 19 = c = Part with dependent title
(http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bdleader.html)
A volume record will show a link to the set.
Link: search for $w in 001 to find the set record (Control-number index).

II. Serial records and analytics

Serial record: leader pos 7 = s = Serial
(http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bdleader.html)
A serial record will show a link to search for analytics.
Link: search for 001 in $w to find the analytical records (rcn index).

Analytical record: Has 773, and leader pos 7 = a or b = monographic or serial
component part (http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bdleader.html)
A analytical record will show a link to the parent using information from 773.
Link: search for $w in 001 to find the serial record. (Control-number index).

The other thing is that I think this needs a big warning sign. It rewrites a
lot of data and perhaps it would be cool to have a confirmation flag or
something. I know it's in the folder for migration scripts, perhaps only being
super careful here. 

Both things are not enough for me to fail - going to sign-off.
