tools/t_holes

If pages are edited often / regularly you will soon get hundreds of
saved page versions. As this slows down (particularly the
db_flat_file ones) and enlarges the database content size, you may
want to strip old versions.

This tool suggests you to remove a few page versions. You should
however NOT DELETE the page VERSION ONE and the very last (newest)
page version (of course).
The page version 1 often contains control data, not found in newer
versions, when db_flat_files or db_dba is used, so please keep
aware of this.

There were some changes necessary in db_flat_files to support
those "version holes", but it currently seems to work stable.

You cannot modify the README.fragments file, but anyhow any ideas or suggestion should as usually get filed on BugReports, UserSuggestions or even better the README.fragments.Discussion.
