This has been fixed now with a minimal inbox_re_workaround.psgi as
Eric suggested.

It should be said that this increases the disk usage by ~3.5x. These
lists used to take ~9GB of storage, now they take ~32GB. The total
public-inbox lists storage is now 52GB. There is still 250G free
space. And when we are happy we can reclaim the lists.old 9GB of
storage.

I removed them all. If people want them back it will be easy since
they didn't contain any messages to begin with.

I kept cygwin-xfree, cygwin-xfree-announce, overseers and test-list
(which I used to test :)
This leaves us with 162 public-inbox lists.
