    This script does not (yet anyway):
    - clean-up any obsoleted/renamed files in the text directories
    - clean-up old filebase files that are not stored in the default (data/dirs) ---

    That's a great idea - I've run the same \sbbs directory since I started
    in 2005 or so, lots of cruft laying around that I'm leery of deleting
    manually.

    Sure, just make sure you back up first. And not *all* cruft is removed by this script.

    Log Message:
    Clean up the old filebase data files from all the configured data_dir's

    De-duplicate the data_dirs first (most sysops use a single data dir for all file directories).

    Also, don't print non-existing old files when run with -q (quiet) option.
