I've tried to forward-port that to master, which was a mission, but I
think I've done it.  More importantly I've improved the tests, and
found it handles one issue I couldn't get the old dbcheck to find,
which is a backlink to a deleted object.

The tests have been changed to use administrator and enterprise admins
to keep stable GUIDs, and now reliably pass.

There is still more work to do to squash this in to a for-master patch
series, and I may have totally mucked up the rebase, so please look
carefully.

I wouldn't normally get into your WIP tree, but it seemed more helpful
than continuing parallel development.

Thanks for all your work here, and I hope this is useful!
