I was running version 6.4.2 when I lost all the binaries.  I still
have all the data/* and data/base/* files.

The port for FreeBSD is 6.5.3.  I have it installed, now.  The disk
file formats changed between version 6.4.2 and 6.5.3.

Is there a tool or mechanism to translate these files into a format
acceptable to version 6.5.3?

The only way I see is to download version 6.4.2, install it, dump the
databases, install version 6.5.3, and, load the dumped data.  There
must be a better (simpler) way.
