Hmm, would it work to do an OS level copy so long as you get to the redo log
before it starts being written to again?
Just a random thought...

I don't think, it's possible.
Most probably it checks 'archived' column in v$log.
Also, it keeps track of archived files in v$archived_log.

Is it possible to re-archive an already archived
but still online redo log file?
the 8.1.6 sql*plus manual says it is, but
I can't get the syntax down right apparently.
SQL> archive log 227
returns a ORA-16013 (does not need archiving) error
and
SQL> archive log 227 to '/tmp'
returns
SP2-0718 illegal arhicve log option
Anybody done this?
