Unfortunately, it doesn't look like versions of the articles beyond the first ~10 are automatically recoverable.
There were some changes made to the page text that weren't represented in diff_log, specifically changing certain camel-case links to free links. If you can work out what the changes were and when they were made, you can recover the text. I successfully recovered all 119 revisions of [[Larry Sanger]], using the following transformation applied after 984005227 UNIX time:
'LarrySanger' => 'Larry Sanger', 'JimboWales' => 'Jimbo Wales', 'WikiPedia' => 'Wikipedia', 'UnitedStates' => 'United States',
I'm not sure how many links were changed in this way, but it seems to have been a hand-constructed list.
