Neither bextract nor any of the other tools were shipped with pre-2.0.x 
Bacula's because the code needed to read tapes was not ported to Win32 and 
the whole mess ran under cygwin.

If I am not mistaken, all these tools now work on 2.0.x thanks to Robert 
Nelson's work.

The above is not correct, the bconsole restore can restore any job/file from 
any backup providing the info is in the catalog, and if it is not, the 
restore chapter tells you how to do a restore without the catalog.  Using the 
catalog and brestore, there are many ways to restore virtually anything, but 
the easiest is to specify the jobid to be restored.
