Point taken, but fortunately, Simon got back to me and essentially indicated
that I was out of luck.

Is it at all possible to manually replay archived WAL files after restoring
from a pg_dump dumpfile?
You probably want to look at:
http://candle.pha.pa.us/main/writings/pgsql/sgml/backup-online.html
That is from the soon to be released 8.1 documentation. PITR is available
in 8.0, but I believe there were enhancements made to the tools for using
it in 8.1.
Unfortunately, diffing the 8.0.4 docs against the 8.1 docs shows almost no
useful differences. I was mostly hoping someone with knowledge of the WAL
internal format could tell me how to extract the transactions from some and
manually replay them in the db via psql with lots of copy/paste action.
