Heh. No, the problem at this point as far as making estimates go is
even knowing a vague idea of how much there is to do.

Hrm. That might be an idea - at the moment I've got the trunk and the 
2.1 branch checked out in parallel directories, and have a teeny zsh
alias to do diffs and look at the tree. I'm then checking the commit 
logs since the 2.1 branch to see the diffs.
