Martin, your solution is awesome.

I've seen the presentation at Pharoconf about setting an analyzer to the serializer and I was thinking in that direction.

Thanks a lot,

You might even set up a mapping of the obsolete class to some temporary class, which allows Fuel to fully materialize the saved objects. You can then explore the Fuel intermediate structures, as well as the final de-serialized object structure.
