If one way or another the data is (except for the 4 days we really have no data for) accessible, we will write a program to recover the data into the production database. So if anyone of you knows about a way to access the actual data in the WAL file (or a reference where to find enough information to do this) I would be very happy.

I suppose you did already try restoring that dump and applying the log files to it and that failed?
