If the image in questions are in the actual crossfire-arch distribution, versions exist on sourceforge for download that predate the SVN conversion, so it may be possible to download one of those arch distributions and just copy over the pre-corrupted images into the current arch tree and recommit.

I'm not terribly worried about the images being permanently lost. What
I'm more interested in is if it's possible to "fix" the history so
that it's easier to browse in the future. And, if so, is it easier to
fix it while we're using SVN, or once we move to Git?
