I did look at Search-Namazu, but saw that it did not have what
I need.

Well, I read the file format documentation, and wrote a pure
Perl solution.  I've tested it out with my private archives
and it is being used at the mhonarc.org mail archives,
<http://www.mhonarc.org/archive/html/> (see the [Bookmark Link]
on each message page).

It will be part of the next mharc release, and is in the
mharc CVS tree at <http://savannah.gnu.org/cvs/?group=mhonarc>.
I whipped up a MHArc::Namazu module to contain utility methods
for accessing the field data.
