How about a slight modification?

"Migrate data from older version/non DB_File based databases"

I don't think there's going to be a real solution for the short doc line,
but the larger section below in the docs can explain it for those who'll
be confused no matter what we do.

Anyone else have an opinion on this?  Should I back it out?  Replace
it? or just leave it as is?

Hmmmm...good point.  I'm open to other suggestions, the old
description was too confusing when considering an upgrade from vX ->
vY of the base database.

Hrm.  It'll also rebuild DB_File based databases, which is good, for
instance, if you have a DB v7 seen DB that should be upgraded to v8.
