digup looked like it could be a useful tool to have around. But unfortunately it seems to segfault when I attempt to save the manifest :-( Maybe it's a 64-bit issue...
A place for sharing items of interest to those curating hybrid archives & manuscripts.
Legacy computer bits wanted!
At Bodleian Electronic Archives and Manuscripts (BEAM) we are always on the lookout for older computers, disk drives, technical manuals and software that can help us recover digital archives. If you have any such stuff that you would be willing to donate, please contact susan.thomas@bodleian.ox.ac.uk. Examples of items in our wish list include: an Apple Mac Macintosh Classic II Computer, a Wang PC 200/300 series, as well as myriad legacy operating system and word-processing software.

Hmmm. Dunno. I managed to run it fine here (32-bit Ubuntu 10.04) on files around 2GB+ in size - it is very fast too!
I guess it could be a 64-bit issue - have you tried building from the source? (scroll to end of page for the source code).
