The scripts are now fairly complete, I named to restored
script rorrim.sh. This allows me to make a wrapper script
named restore.sh (which is somewhat saner).

Anyhow, the following is now possible:
rdup /dev/null /vol/backup/200604 | monthday.sh | rorrim.sh /tmp/NEW

which restores to /tmp/NEW. 

Also because of rdup, a remote restore (pulling the files from a
remote machine), should work like this:

ssh othermachine rdup -c /dev/null /vol/backup/200604 | \
monthday.sh -c | rorrim.sh -c /tmp/NEW

which "pulls" the files from 'othermachine' and restores them
locally in /tmp/NEW
