I guess you will have to "script" that converter on your own, because no
"automatic" converter will work with PHP-serialized array. I haven't
really found the need to do that, in most cases the serialized arrays
are either some "minor" configuration that can be adapted by hand after
converting everything else, or some cached stuff that we can clean up
afterwards anyway. Isn't that the case?
