Lots.  :)

To be more detailed...

The utility itself spewed out a *lot* of information, and it *did* fix a
number of things (according to its output).  But it also labeled a number of
things as suspicious, and couldn't fix them:

    Checking 35621 attachments:

    Checking 3582 (txn 5515): parent 4322 looks bad, I think this goes with 3580

    Checking 3585 (txn 5535): parent 4358 looks bad, I think this goes with 3583

    Checking 3588 (txn 5762): parent 4659 looks bad, I think this goes with 3586
    Checking 3590 (txn 5913): parent 4811 looks bad, I think this goes with 3589
    Checking 3591 (txn 5913): parent 4811 looks bad, I think this goes with 3589
    ...

And when I run with --fix:

    Checking 3591 (txn 5913): parent 4811 looks bad, tried to change to 3589 but failed: Immutable field
    ...

There's also a number of 'too many possible parent' errors in there; I have
yet to try with --guess-ambiguous.
