If one day somebody else does inherit the codebase, are there any tools out there that are designed to help people in that situation? Like something that de-spaghettifies everything?

Some automatic tools could help (although I doubt thay'll work on DBase III): Static analysis to see what's there, version control to start at the top and log your way through and be able to rollback to a previous working version. But it's at the very least weeks of pain.
