Yes. We found a way to export all data (except for file attachments),
through a different exporter. This gives all data, unfortunately, it
is ill-formed XML (& is not properly entity-referenced sometimes).

Anybody who wants to work with these data, please let me know;
I made a snapshot a few days ago.

The "backchannel access to SF data" was actually someone different:
he experimented with the existing export, confirmed the problem,
promised to talk to Paul Moore about that, and referred us to
the other XML exporter as a work-around (that one allows to export
500 items at a time).
