I have a VMS BACKUP tape that was written with the /INTERCHANGE switch.
I'd like to recover the original directory structure, but BACKUP wants to
read all the files into the directory I specified on the BACKUP command.
That is, if I do:

    BACKUP/REWIND/LOG MSA0: DUB0:[TAPE]

it reads all the files into the top-level directory [TAPE], instead of
creating them in sub-directories where they should be (and where BACKUP/LIST
says they originally were).

Does anyone have a better solution than creating all the sub-directories by
hand and moving the files into their appropriate directories?  (There are
a *lot* of sub-directories to deal with!)
