Scott,

Based on earlier messages, there's no way to just restore the master
again.  But can the data be recovered from the files?  If it's InnoDB,
then perhaps.  See http://code.google.com/p/innodb-tools/.  If it's
MyISAM, one of our guys has made some partial work on a set of tools
to serve a similar function -- extract the data from the files.

Either way, it's going to be tedious and/or mildly costly without
guaranteed success.
