The script was added in 2009 and not touched since:
http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=commit;h=84ff3747b80d42914a8d570b6b4ff5667eab663b

>From the commit message: 

"When marcxml cannot be parsed into a MARC::Record object, the biblio is
undisplayable and it obviously breaks many features in Koha.  This script
can test to parse every marcxml, and alert on failures.  Optionally, the
marcxml can be replaced from the marc field."

Didn't we at some point switch from treating marc (ISO2709) as the
authoritative format, to treating marcxml as the authoritative format? I'd say
loosing the ability to recreate marcxml from marc is no big deal.
