To follow up on this...
recode.exe was not recoding the entire log file, so I was getting only
a truncated version of it, which was very frustrating.
I have found that the newest version of blat (2.6.2, from
www.blat.net) deals nicely with the backup logs - no conversion
necessary. I'm in the middle of reworking the script to accomodate
this.
