I've gathered all the source archives from v0.1.0 to v0.9.0 with the
exception of one.

I can't get v0.1.2 anywhere.  None of the crawlers from Web Archive seemed
to have captured it.  I realize the build was recalled, but I would still
like to examine it purely out of curiosity.

Does anyone know of a mirror or have a personal copy of "bitcoin-0.1.2.rar"
from 2009 / 2010 that they would be willing to share?  Even a checksum
would be nice so I could verify what I had if I ever come across it in the
future.

First and last sighting of it on Web Archive:
