I have not found such an animal, though with my users it might be a good
idea.
There is an article on meta for SpecialDeleteOldRevisions which *could
be* modified to remove oldest bits.

Hi,
I don't want all the past versions of an article to be maintained,
because for each minor changes, a new version is created and the db size
is growing rapidly. I want only 5 previous versions or so, only. Can we
limit the number of versions stored in Mediawiki? Or can we delete the
past unwanted versions through the UI?
