Translation: If it'll hold up to more than a days riding I can sell the rear wheel to an unsuspecting punter.

Same situation I was in. I just rotafix'd the **** out of it because I figured the hub was already stripped anyway. Am actually still skidding around on it today, waiting on my new wheelset to arrive.
